    More often than not, it's a "turn signal." However, I can remember calling it a "blinker, flashy-dealio, little yellow light, etc" at least once or twice.

    I use both. But did you know that here in Japan they call it the Winker? Some of my Japanese students told me that...I thought it was cute!

    I think it's a Brit thing - everyone I know back at home calls it that.
