Split second decisions are common on the road and often result in major life threatening situations. If it takes and FEW SECONDS to understand that that's a turn signal and not a brake light, then that's a major problem. Here we are inventing LED brake lights in order to shorten reaction times and still using red turn signals that severely impact those reaction times.
And it's not like the situation seldom comes up. I run into this many times a week where I am just NOT SEEING the red turn signal. Sometimes it is because the person is also pumping their brakes, so you can't tell what's goings on at all, and sometimes the flashing just does not register at all because it is too close to the red brake light. Amber turn signals register much faster and more reliably.
