I may be wrong, but I was always taught the 4 way flashers were to used when actually stopped on the side of the road. Times have changed.
I did a Google Search and came up with all kinds of things. In Florida is illegal to use your fashers in the rain.
Flashers are for "emergencies" only. What constitutes an "emergency" though?
Flashers are used for warnings of adverse conditions ahead, giving warning to those behind.
Seems there is no set "standard" for the use of flashers and as one web site stated, the rules are different for every state.
All we can do is, if we see a vehicle on the road running with flasher on, just proceed with caution. They may be warning you they are drunk too!
