Arrow NHTSA may mandate amber turn signals

The National Highway Traffic Safety Association thinks it is, after finding that amber lights are 5.3% more effective at preventing crashes than the red blinkers. NHTSA came to that conclusion after comparing crash data of vehicles that switched from one color to another.
it might not always look good, but it's a small sacrifice to make if it helps prevent accidents. Having lived in Europe where all cars have amber lights, I think it really makes a difference.
