it seems to me that the indicators on many modern cars are
significantly less visible, especially off-axis, than those of older
vehicles.

I find the worst design is circular brake lights surrounded by a ring
of indicators, or vice-versa.

Being positioned very close to bright LED
running lights does not help in other cases, too (so dimming these seems
an excellent idea to me).


Yes, several manufacturers seem to do that now.

I sometimes find it difficult with the rear LED indicators placed in the
centre of circular rear lights esp when brake lights are also on.
