You should turn left.

And on…”Garage

it’s just pointing at the speed you’re supposed to be going while you have your phone in your hands.
You mean 100mph ?
i’d say it’s closer to 105
I recently got a BMW i4 (their electric mid-size sedan). These new cars beep if you start to stray to the next lane without first engaging the turn signal.
My company’s Sprinter van goes as far as yanking you back to your lane unless you engage the turn signal first.
Damned tech ruining a good vintage meme.
Tesla is the new BMW and nobody’s using those buttons.
Ugh… I got to try those buttons the other day. Might work in an intersection. Horrible in a roundabout!!! No wonder nobody use them!
There’s a Starbucks near me close to a complicated intersection. Without fail every Tesla making a left at the intersection does so directly into the rightmost lane (three lane street) then slams the brakes to turn right into the parking lot for Starbucks, all without a turn signal.
What you described is definitely worse, but one of my pet-peeves is when drivers put their turn signal on AFTER slowing way down for their turn. It makes it seem like they’re just braking for no reason and might do something crazy like swerve across lanes.
The turn signal is meant to inform other drivers of your intentions before you make a move, not after.
Seems terrifying to have your car resist your driving
Yeah, I am not a fan. You can turn it off from the system settings menu, but it reactivates on restart. There is no way to disable it permanently.
Damn, that’s super annoying. My Ford truck has a similar feature, but at least it’s possible to turn it off permanently. I usually leave it on the “vibrate steering” / warning only mode, so if you’re distracted it’ll warn you but not actually take over.
When I first got it and was towing a trailer through some narrow curvy roads it was downright dangerous because I needed to cross the center line to stay on the road, and the truck was trying to steer me off the edge.
Yes, you should be concerned!
I’m pretty sure that’s a premium service you pay a monthly fee to access. Definitely does not come standard with a BMW. You’ll want to shut it off immediately to not incur extra charges to your BMW account.
It’s not monthly. They bill per blink. A la carte blinkers are so hot right now.
The first 100 blinks per month are included with your subscription. Subsequent blinks are pay-as-you-go. Sign up now and we’ll include an additional 30 days of right hand turn signal access, absolutely free. (Taxes and processing fees may still apply. Void where prohibited.)
I hate BMW drivers like many do. For some reason, black cars are always the worst. I told my partner I don’t like black, BMW drivers.
I was so confused by her shock, until I realized she thought I was talking about black people.
That’s funny, out here my bias is against white pickup trucks, with point modifiers.
- Lift kit? Add a point.
- Giant truck bed toolbox? Point.
- Truck nuts? Like 5 points.
- Fascist or anti-social bumper stickers like punisher logos or skeletal middle fingers? More points.
It’s so pathetically predictable…
Fascist or anti-social bumper stickers like punisher logos
Ain’t the punisher from a comic book? What did those damn Americans do this time?!
My dad has a truck bed toolbox, but he’s an actual mechanic and there are real tools in there. None of that other stuff, just a Texas Rangers license plate so people can understand why he looks so disappointed all the time.
that’s why Tesla hid them, so their drivers wouldn’t accidentally press them
