Like, if you accidentally cut someone off, and they get mad and honk, how do you apologize?

I’m willing to bet you’d know what I meant if you were trying to merge and I double-tapped lights.

Yeah if you're in the lane I'm merging into then two taps means "it's ok for you to merge in because there's enough room for you". That's more than 2 beats though.

Maybe you mean "o kay" or "yes merge" or "no stop" or "look out" or "nice car"

    Oh you mean the two-syllable thing. That was more for the joke lol

    I think it works as a rule of thumb: if message is simple enough that context makes it obvious, two blinks will suffice. But no, it wouldn’t be useful as an actual lexical cypher.
