Haha! In Korea, it's the "I'm sorry!" button when you drive like an asshole.

I learned in Japan that it is a thank you button. Like if someone let's you into a lane, you flash twice to say thank you and turn it off.

I've noticed truck drivers do the same here in the US, so I've started doing this as well as a regular driver.
