I can't be bothered to do the math, but I'm sure if you did you'd find something like 5mph in 4th ends up at like 150rpm, which is too slow for the engine to not die.
Top Gear took a zr1 from dead stop in 6th to 180mph....lol.

the real problem is people dont use turn signals at all or they use it to indicate that they are currently switching lanes or turning. Not exactly useful. You're supposed to use the turn signal to give a warning that you have the intention of turning or changing lanes. Which is more than 3 blinks.
