TW - I think you are seeing his left turn signal.  Look in the back window, and you can see the middle brake light of the car ahead of him, but his center brake light is off as well.  Also, right next to his left signal you can see the reflection of a signal light from the photo taker.

My guess is manual trans with foot on clutch and left turn signal on  ;D

Damn M58! Remind me to get you on a jury if I'm falsely accused, and keep you off it if I'm guilty. ;D You've got the Sherlock thing going.

FQ beat me to it  ;D

I had to go back and look, then double check who posted the comment, I expected TT, Bulldog or one of the others with LEO experience.
Sharp eye M58.

RE: the Jeep

Since I work in graphics and videos, I immediately had questions about the photo and the conditions upon which it was taken.

I reserve the opinion that it might be Photoshopp'd because the lettering on the spare tire cover is so clear and the license plate is so fuzzy.

Evidence that it is authentic is that you can also see in the rear view mirror the driver is male, short hair and wearing sun glasses.  (A marine?)

See M58's assessment... dead on. Saw the same type of jeep making a left turn yesterday, could have snapped the exact same picture (minus the cool statement on the spare cover). The license plate appears fuzzy because of the plastic cover that is over the plate not because of photoshop magic.
