turn signal irritation

[fshol]

First of all reaching the handle itself is not easy since it is ergonomically not well placed. But when you want to go left on a roundabout and set the signal, it is automatically switched off, since your first steering move is to the right. I can understand the logic of that, but it should be possible to reactivate it. Unfortunately i haven't found a way to this, which means that oncoming traffic has no idea what direction I am going

Use hand signals

We don't have the round abouts here in the us. Just ignorant people that drive with their signal on constantly

Round Abouts are becoming more and more popular in the US. Where I live, I see them popping up everywhere. Shoot, we drive on the left when crossing highway over-passes on a diverging diamond interchange. It actually works a lot better than the traditional way.

I purchased my first Ford F-150 in 2011 before I got this raptor and do have to say that the blinker control did take a little bit to get used to but now when I am in another vehicle, I find I like the Ford way better.

They are popping up more but very half assed compared to Europe.

if you are in a roundabout dont you have the right of way? those things confuse me

Traffic from left has the right away, so yes

I'm not fond of the hypersensitive electronic turn signal arm...cancels when I want it to stay on, cycle turns back on when I try to cancel. And occasionally I'll accidentally activate the signal when I change to/from hi-beam.

I remember the days when a traditional mechanical turn signal worked just fine...

I wish they would put the hi-beam control back on the floor, the good ole days.

I love the turn signal! It's great how you can just tap it, and it only goes for a couple seconds while you're changing lanes and turns off automatically. And if you need to manually turn it off, you just tap it instead of having to push it all the way.
