Driving back from Mount Grace Priory this afternoon I pulled out of a slip road in sport and floored it due to heaven traffic. All good. Sounds great and really moves.

Then a mile or so down the road I get the dreaded warning jingle. I see nothing on the dash. Temp ok. Fuel ok.

Then I realise it’s because I have left my right turn indicator on.

Thankfully it’s not something I do often but it’s good the car warns you after a few minutes.

This is something I’ve been doing, I put it down to the driving position & not being able to notice the indicator icon flashing…

I can’t see any setting for this. Maybe it was something else but there were no messages.

I simply noticed I’d been driving a couple of miles with my indicator on, switched it off and the warning sound stopped.

Weird car this 😂😂

Next time I’m on a quiet road I will try and replicate it. See how many near misses I get 🙈

Would that feature be indicators by chance? Yet to see a BMW driver use them :lol: :lol: :lol:

Haha - we’ve taught them how to wear masks. Next - how to use indicators :D
