In other words, it lets all the other drivers passing near you that you are having an emergency situation with your vehicle and to be careful when passing near you. Regardless of what the nature of your emergency is, the drivers will see the four turn signals blinking at the same time and know to be careful when passing your vehicle. The emergency could be electrical problems, flat tire, mechanical problems, no brakes, bad visibility, etc.
