Hazard tell tales aren't testable....

Erm, yes they are. Section 1.4.B.1.

e. ‘tell-tale’ not working correctly

As in flashing red switch so you know they're on?

The hazard warning lamp ‘tell tale’ may be a separate light or the same as the indicator ‘tell-tale. However, it must be a flashing light

Both indicator tell tales flashing (where two are fitted) is allowable. What is the big difference however is that it must be a flashing light whereas the indicator may be a light or clicker.
