| L&K Badges = indicators Just a thought..... I'm sure more drivers pull out in front of me when I'm going round a roundabout with my current car than any other. Only occured to me today that the L&K badges on the front wing are where indicator repeaters are situated on most other cars (except VW, Skoda, Merc etc who have them in the mirror). I wonder if other drivers are looking there, see what they think is a repeater not flashing and pull out? I know they are wrong even if I wasn't indicating, and of course the mirror repeater is flashing away, but just a thought. Anyone else noticed this?

| Re: L&K Badges = indicators Nope. Can't say I have. "He's got a new car" syndrome perhaps?? The mirror repeater is quite bright and you would need to be blind not to see it.

| Re: L&K Badges = indicators True, probably just declining driving standards. There does seem to be an increase of "I'm pulling out in front of you, you deal with it, not my problem". And I thought it was just Christmas when it happened.....

| Re: L&K Badges = indicators Nope, people don't seem to get the concept of "give way" and just pull out regardless. It doesn't help when you drive a new car either.
