        when my BMW is reset, the soft turn signal only blinks once. I have to go and set it for 3 blinks. Ever since, I see BMW drivers sometimes only give one blink and if you blink you might miss it lol bad engineering on such great engineering

          A good friend of mine was a BMW mechanic for years. His favorite joke was: "You know what the most soul crushingly pointless job is? The guy who installs turn signals at the BMW factory."

              I've seen the stereotype of Altima owners being bad/dangerous drivers around the internet a few times, and I'm curious as to how it developed... The Altima always struck me as a pretty typical mid-size sedan, so I'm not sure what about it would attract a higher proportion of bad drivers over other similar vehicles, or why people would zero in on bad Altima drivers over anyone else.

              Since I've learned of the stereotype, I have periodically noticed Altima drivers doing stupid things, but I also see a lot of Altimas and a lot of dumb drivers in general, so I haven't been able to tell if the incidence of bad drivers in Altimas is higher than the norm.

              For me I think this one Altima has a largely similar commute time and path I do, because it seems it's always the same guy.

                    Bravo! I'll need to have a look, do they also have a video with helpful hints for overcoming the blind spots that prevent you from fitting your BMW into a single parking space in crowed parking lots?

                        12 years ago. Back then shit was less dire.

                        2013 was plenty dire. We had Ted Cruz's friends in the House trying to dismember social security and medicare while Obama kept explaining away why we needed more troops in Afghanistan and fewer labor organizers in Ohio.

                        The '08 Housing Crisis was still echoing through the US, the economy was stalling in the face of Congressional austerity, and people ringing the big "Climate Change is coming for us" dinner bell were once again getting told to shut up so we wouldn't scare away moderate republican voters in the 2014 midterms. Israel and Gaza had broken out into a brief shooting war, the recently-debunked Lancet "Vaccination-Autism" study was gaining traction among reactionary politicians, Jeffry Epstein was hanging out with Bill Gates on Palm Beach, and a fresh-faced NYC landlord with political aspirations was all over FOX News saying how he was on the verge of uncovering Obama's real birth certificate.

                        The fuse was lit. We were all just in the fucking around phase, rather than the finding out part. Extremely dire situation.

                          There is a tiny pinhole in the top of the gear stick. If you put a paperclip in it for 5secs the horn honks and the BMW is reset. Afterwards you have to resync your key through the authenticator app and change your blinkers from one to three.

                          If you hear a continuous honk. Your BMW is actually a transformer and you just sounded it's urethra.

                              It's because they're entitled dickbag drivers. Which is funny because where BMWs are more common, Audi drivers are the entitled dickbags.

                              If I see a black Audi, I can guarantee that it will be a dangerously bad driver.

                                    I asked the local BMW dealer if I had to take a class to unlearn how to use a turn signal.

                                    He did not find it funny, which I found even more hilarious.

                                      This has spread to more than BMW drivers. Just this morning I saw a Lexus, a Chevy, and a semi not bother with them.

                                        if the battery is disconnected, it loses some of the memory settings. like there's two available seat memories that get reset. plus saved radio stations and blinker preferences

                                          when my BMW is reset, the soft turn signal only blinks once. I have to go and set it for 3 blinks. Ever since, I see BMW drivers sometimes only give one blink and if you blink you might miss it lol bad engineering on such great engineering

                                          I did not know about soft turn signals until I saw this post.

                                          I question why this feature exists. Drivers should be aiming to signal 10 seconds ahead. When making a lane change or turn, you should be keeping your signal on until the maneuver is completed. I can't think of a circumstance where 3 blinks is enough. 1 blink looks more like a mistaken signal.
