    Ah this again… BMW offers an indicator subscription… you get 10 free flashes per month, and then if you haven’t bought in, it’s pay per flash… sheesh… how is that hard to understand? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    Us BMW drivers do use indicators, they’re just at a wavelength that poor people can’t see.

    Easy oil exchange pump. You need to stroke it left and right in order to get the old oil out of the tip of the lever.

    I currently drive a BMW and I use them. But that’s because BMW driver is a state of mind and not based on the car you own. I am a Toyota driver at heart.

    The state I currently live, Louisiana, and it seems like blinkers at all is a premium package upgrade. Hell, half the time cops don’t even use them around here. The only vehicle I can reliably see use them are out of state 18 wheelers.

    Was behind a driver’s Ed car once, no kids, the instructor. No blinker used…

    I wish that problem was confined to BMW, it’s common enough to happen even with popular car drivers 'round these parts.

    In my experience Audi drivers are the worst. Whenever I see an idiot on the road there’s always an Audi driver trying to out-idiot them right behind.

      I know a guy like this. He’s a great guy, very competent, gives up his time for his community. Drives his Audi like a cunt though.

    I tried sliding the control rod in and out of the steering column, but nothing happened. I think it’s stuck.

      I actually did that when I was a kid trying to understand those mysterious car sticks my dad slapped with incredible confidence while driving.

    I resently switched from Toyota to Volkswagen. My signaling lowered by about 30%.

    Here and there I just notice that I did it again.
