What is this?

Signalum Lateralis is part of the Institute Pharmacy's formulary of satirical prescriptions. Everything on this slip is fictional except the behavior it addresses. A real pharmacist, handed this slip, would decline to fill it. Patients are invited to fill it themselves.

Patients know it in practice as Lane-Change Signal, used — the Latin is ceremonial; the English form is what they actually execute.
