Hazard light drivers

I have seen plenty of these over the years. You know the ones tearing down the highway flat out with the hazards on mile after mile any how I saw one today and though I might ask the question on here and get a somewhat sensible answer

You sure about that?
I only see that driving through the village really late, when the trucks don't bother slowing down and just charge through.

Yeah I might be a bit optimistic about the answers. But IDE see one a week or more on the Hume when I was up and down it all the time

There isn't actually a question there, which makes giving a sensible answer somewhat difficult.

Basically I'm asking why the hell they do it!

Are they all tearing off to the local hospital with a very pregnant wife on board?

Or maybe the driver is doped up shouting "WEE WAH WEE WAH" as he's rushing along?

Haha that last part could be legit for these parts

Well I've torn up the highway at 30kph with hazards on as a harvester escort....

But somehow I think you're talking about a slightly different speed and situation haha.

They use them more in Europe on the motorways and in a very sensible fashion. If they come across a bit of a traffic jam and have to slow down quickly then the hazards come on until they see the car behind them put theirs on. I don't see that very often here, but then they are going a lot faster than us on their motorways.

X2. I always use them when having to stop suddenly on the freeway. Learnt the practice in Europe and it made so much sense.
