What is Red Lantern Alert?
1.
Beware of asian drivers, when one of them cuts you off or just does a dumb driving maneuver in front or beside you throwing your car in peril.
This term comes from the observation that many asian drivers (in Toronto) have red lanterns hanging from thier rear view mirrors. When you would be driving and your passenger might say to you, "Hey, watch out for the red lantern alert to the right!" Seeing an asian driver merging into your lane minus the proper signal lights and disregard for the driver's car in question.
