Abstract
This invention is to communicate to other drivers, by altering the frequency or intensity with which the turn signal blinks, that the vehicle is turning. This can be accomplished using either digital or analog control circuits, microcontrollers or pulse generators. Whether analog or digital, they communicate the difference between a driver intending to turn and the vehicle turning.
