A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.

Don't You use the same light for turning and braking?
It still flashes. It's dumb that we don't charge it, but it's still pretty noticable in all but the quickest stops.
A lot of US cars use the same physical light for turn signals and brake signals, but I'm saying noticing the car in front of you is slowing down because the brake lights are on can be a more reliable way to know someone is about to turn because no one uses turn signals properly
Not universally. And even for cars that do, it is still easily noticeable when someone has their signal on. There are at least 3 brake lights, so if one of them is flashing instead of solid, that one is the turn signal.
I find more cars these days tend to have dedicated front and rear turn signals that are separate from the brake lights, though.
