    I have a BMW and I use my turn signals! There are dozens of us!

    Yes I'm a vegetarian. Yes, I eat meat. Yes, we exist.

      My favorite blinker scenario locally is this really disgusting offramp/series of interchanges/spaghetti abomination thing on my way home from certain directions. I take every possible lane change and right turn for nearly 2 miles on this part of the route, so I just activate the blinker once and it stays on for a solid 3 minutes until it shuts off on its own.

      • Start on 2-lane 55mph turnpike with exit coming up on the right in ~.75 miles
      • right blinker goes on as the turnpike gradually widens to 5 lanes, adding new lanes on the right every ~.1 miles - I leave the blinker on as I hug the solid white and slip into each new lane as it comes
      • After .2 miles of being in the rightmost of the 5 lanes, I slip onto the exit ramp - blinker is still on (lol)
      • After another .1 miles, the ramp splits and I take the right side of the fork - blinker still on
      • Yet another fork after that where I stay to the right again
      • Another roadway merges in on the right which I have to cross in front of
      • Come up on a T intersection of the off-ramp with the surface street and, you guessed it, the blinker is STILL ON, and it's another right turn for me
      • That last 90° turn is enough steering wheel rotation to trigger the automatic shutoff of the blinker coming out of the turn
      • I grin like an idiot and cackle with glee the rest of the way home as my partner in the passenger seat quietly shakes her head. Fucking glorious

      I can sorta imagine it, but also not. I think we need a video to laugh at

        It's scheduled to be filmed just after the salute tutorial is released.

        This is absolutely needed. Everybody knows how to do a nazi salute but they always forget to make the mussolini stank face at the same time.

          I don't understand how that's possible. Like, driving school has ingrained the turn signal reflex into my arm so well that I sometimes even feel weird not using a turn signal when making a hard turn on a road without crossings. And changing lanes without a turn signal literally can't be done, my brain feels. Don't driving schools in the US do that?

          Driving schools in the US don't do anything except lick their finger and put it under your nose to see if you're breathing. And they only do that half the time.

            I think she was 'vegan', which makes it even worse.

              Maybe I'll take a dashcam video. Seems like the sort of thing that belongs in dull men's club.

                AI powered bleeding edge fly-by-wire modern innovation in turn signals

                $34.99 per month plus tax for basic turn signals. If you refuse to pay for basic only half your cylinders will fire and your redline is reduced to 3500rpm. Also you don't have turn signals.

                  That's fucking hilarious out of context.

                  But that being said, BMWs have the worst blinkers control I've ever seen in a car. They tried to innovate on it with software and it's just bad. Seriously. For anybody who doesn't know what it's like, go to a BMW dealership and test drive a car or something. Somehow, they took the stick control and made it worse.

                  So, that there's a tutorial video, is depressing and funny, but also unfortunately needed.

                  My driving teacher had a BMW and I thought it had nice turn signals! Then again my parents car at the time was a nearly 22 years old economy car so my frame of reference is not great.
