Default hazard button question

Hi

Im new with mazda cars, but I want to see if I can make some modification that I love from my previous vw.

In vw when you put the hazard light on (flashing) then you need to put turn signal to left (example) the harzad lights stop until the signal is back to off position but in the meantime the turn signal is on the harzard stay off.

In mazda is possible to get something like that replacing any relay o switch.

any idea

Best Regards.

Just a fancy and useful thing that I would like to have it. In VW or Audi just replace the Harzard Switch.

Best Regards.

I didn't know any cars had this function but I've actually thought that hazard lights should function that way!
The benefit of this is when you have to drive with your hazards on (e.g. a month ago my friends windshield wiper blew off in a storm and we had to get off the freeway nearly blind, or intense fog or dust) and you need to change lanes, you have to manually turn off your hazard lights then turn on your blinker and then turn your hazards back on. Some people don't do that and therefore it's not clear that they're going to change lanes.

I think it's almost trivial but still a good idea from a safety perspective.

Driving with the hazards on.
I had the same first though as you (probably). Why would you need this stuck on the side of the road?
