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.
Thereâs 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 also gets me is the right lane is super extra wide so you can move over and make the turn into the parking lot as slowly as youâd like, but instead they need to make sure they completely back up traffic behind them as they slowly make it across the left part of the right lane.
Itâs not just specific cars around me, itâs everyone. Just today I was behind a Ford Raptor, a Cadillac, a CRV, and a tractor trailer that didnât bother signaling.
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.
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 was on the way home Sunday with my kid. Going down a road that's 30mph. My house is on the left. I run my blinker on to turn into my driveway. A BMW speeds up and tries to pass on my left. Nearly T-Boned me. All I saw was the medallion and a lit-up UBER sign on the dash.
They managed to stop, flip me off, and sped away before I could even get my window down. What the fuck is thier issue?
