What did you do with/to your Boxster today?

This sounds like a personal problem.
You may want to consider (ask your therapist to help you) why you have such an unreasonable reaction to something so innocuous?

Personally, I put these flashing brake lights in the same category as flashing headlights on motorcycles: I understand what you're trying to do, but I question the effectiveness. Are there any studies that suggest or indicate any success in using them?

I think one is more focused on a red flashing light than not. I know I am, and we all know why they make Chocolate and Vanilla ice cream.

O I understand this, perfectly. I mean, that's the point, right? But Lew, would it drive you to "curse loudly" at the person in front of you?

It's this disproportionate response that I'm suggesting is unreasonable, not the dislike of flashing red lights.

You ever been rear ended? I have three times and put in the hospital twice. The last time it totaled my wife's car, and the first was a man that was a State Farm Insurance agent ran a red light and drove my car into 4 other cars. That also put me in the hospital and the car was totaled. I sued State Farm who I presently had two cars insured with and made won a nice settlement. However I wished I had never been rear ended. My neck has never been the same since. So, there you go! That should explain why I am more focused on any light flashing red. It's not a problem for me if the car has the blinking third light. From what I see it only blinks three times and then stays on with out blinking anymore. I might mention what is annoying is the jacked up Pickup's that the head lights are not adjusted properly since the vehicle has been jacked up. Coming at you we are somewhat blinded, and from the rear, it's not good either. If I was a insurance company I would not insure the jacked up Pickup's until the lights were adjusted properly. Sometime I see these cars racing up behind me when I am stopped and I tap my brake several time to flash my rear lights.
