I’ve always wanted a beanie with two flashing orange lights, so I can put it on and sit on the hood of cars parking illegally while flashing their hazard lights. If they ask/tell me to move, I’ll just reply “it’s okay, I’ve got my parking lights on” and remain sitting on the hood for another few minutes. One day.
That’s universal. In college I always carried packets of ketchup or mayo to put on car door handles when people left their cars unattended in no parking zones. 4 ways on, of course.

Obviously not Spain, here we need your two flashing “parking lights” going and you can park w h e r e v e r you want.
…apparently
I knew someone who told me to park in a not-a-parking-spot and said, “Just turn on the parking lights.”
I’m like, “the what?”
“The parking lights. The flashing ones.”
“You mean the EMERGENCY/HAZARD lights!?”

Same energy.
I did not know I needed that video in my life but here we are
Of course they’re for emergencies, you only use them when you really need to park!

Doing the lord’s work.
We call them dickhead lights here, because they indicate someone is being (or about to be) a dickhead
