I never heard that word - and now that I see it, it looks funny...
Solved by pure deduction and an anagram tool - still can post my guess?

I think the honourable course would be to take a delay. Say 30 minutes. If it hasn't gone off by then, post your solution.

Nice, and while that's not the word we would use here in the UK, it's definitely one we know. I'll let Kornfeld post this one.

Haven't heard that word in a very long time - since cars had ones that lifted out on the side and blinked. Or more often, didn't.

Yep. I was about to add "YUAT" 
The term was current when I got my licence in 1965, when hand signals were still in use, and not all cars had these new-fangled blinkers.
(And I botched the clue. It should have been "...indicates. )

That reminds me where I've first read about the device (not that I've ever seen one): it was a travel book written by respected anthropologist Bengt Danielsson[^] about a road trip he took in Australia in the '60s. When his European car was to be approved for driving in Australia, the official complained that it doesn't have "trafficators" which at the time were compulsory on Australian roads.
In the same book he said that in less populated areas, there weren't many road indicators and the main road could be identified by the number of beer bottles on the side. Was that true or just travel fiction meant to tarnish the sterling reputation of Aussie drivers?

I came across an article today re/ mad cow disease. An hour or so later I was learning of the origins of QR Codes via Veritasium. Several minutes into the video it is stated mad cow disease is part of its history. Quite a coincidence. Even further I also read today an article re/ Rudy Giuliani. Quite a coincidence.

Are you implying that Rudy Giuliani is a mad cow? Because if you are you should remember that he was also a lawyer ... and probably still knows quite a few ...

Mad - possibly. A cow - definitely not.
