A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.

I personally think cars should have two brake light switches. one for when you're pressing the pedal at all, and one for when you're slamming on the pedal.

that way the people behind you know if you're just slowing down a little or actually braking.

Most modern cars now put the hazards on automatically when the driver brakes hard.

Source? I have never seen a single car that does this.

I have seen several - if you press hard enough to Activate ABS on dry road, you most likely will see the hazard lights on
