Default Turn signal effectiveness?

Maybe it's just me, but it happened a few times this weekend--when there happened to be a lot Model A's in town and I had occasion to follow cars with those slick little turn signals that fit between the bumper bars--that I was totally unimpressed with their effectiveness. After sitting there awhile at an intersection behind such a car, I would eventually notice, "Oh, look, he's got turn signals". To my mind, that's not good enough; they should jump out at you. I wonder if using two sets would be feasible/better?

They may be fine at night--no data on that--but I think they are of marginal usefulness on a sunny day.
