Florence Lawrence deserves an Honorary Oscar's for being the "first Movie Star" in America.... It was not Mary Pickford, she was just more well known and had a longer film career.

@Kush Kamble: turn signals are mandatory by law, otherwise manufacturers of the larger german automobiles as well as the automobile owners would insist of getting a car without these lights.

Normal distribution in the graph makes people tend to think what they think. On the other hand, there will be a 5% exceptions on the extreme ends as always. There are male nurses and cooks in the same way there are female mechanics and astronauts. But still, the majority always falls under one predictive lifestyle choices. It's like men are A+C and women are B+D. At any point, A+C = B+D. But it doesn't mean A=B or C=D.

This LADY should be on the COVER of EVERY "DEPARTMENT OF VEHICLES HAND BOOK" and her story on the back. On the written and drivers test should be asked , WHAT DID FLORENCE LAWRENCE INVENT. What were the first turn signals made of. If you can't answer these two questions, then you FAIL and have to start over again.

No, she invented the whole concept of the turn signal. Before you dismiss her invention, tell me what innovations have you made that have been replicated in every automobile made in the last century?

@@Paelorian No, she didn't invent our modern turn signal. She didn't patent her idea or anything. Our modern turn signal uses lights, and she DID NOT have that idea. Someone else did. And patented it. And I'm not in the business of creating inventions, but at least I'm smart enough to know that if I DID make something I should patent it. She is no genius or hero. The turn signal was not inveted by her. She is just one of the earliest record of someone making a variation of it. A very illogical one, might I add.
