Anyone else annoyed by indicators that switch off too easily? Mainly turning right at a roundabout, the action of going left onto it cancels the right indicator, then halfway round I find I'm alarming other road users.

Only had this happen on two cars, all the others were fine. I'm guessing it's bad design in the stalk. Any way to adjust them?

I've only had two cars that annoy me (a Vauxhall and a Renault - and Bod says his Vauxhall does it aswell), the rest worked perfectly. I guess it's only some. But on googling it I found many people complaining about BMWs, to the extent that they'd prefer no cancelling at all.

Yes, I have experienced exactly the problem that the OP described. It's
sometimes necessary to steer with one hand while keeping the other at the
correct position near (but not holding) the wheel to force the indicator to
remain on.

Citroen had the right idea in not having self-cancelling indicators on their
cars (eg the GS, GSA and Xantia that my dad had); you just need to get into
the habit of checking the indicator light and manually cancelling the
indicators when you have left the junction and have straightened up. It was
about 20 years since I last drove a Citroen but I still tend to cancel the
indicators myself just before the self-cancelling mechanism does so. It's
*very* rare that I've ever left my indicators on accidentally when the
self-cancelling mechanism hasn't worked (eg when changing lanes and there is
insufficient movement of the wheel to actuate the mechanism) because I tend
to be aware of the flashing light - I actually scan the important parts of
the dashboard every few seconds, and anyway a flashing light is pretty
noticeable!

I've had loads of different makes of cars, and only the last two have had this problem. I hope it doesn't mean they're all getting more sensitive. Most of my cars allowed you to turn the opposite way to where you've indicated, the click off only functions after you've turned the way you indicated, then turn back again. So in most cars, you can drive in a straight line towards a roundabout, switch on the right indicator, and turn left onto the roundabout without it cancelling. Then you turn right, round the roundabout, and it won't try to cancel until you stop turning right and turn the wheel to the central position.

While most Americans believe that getting rid of religion is an impossible goal, much of the developed world has already accomplished it. Any account of a €�god gene€œ that causes the majority of Americans to helplessly organize their lives around ancient works of religious fiction must explain why so many inhabitants of other First World societies apparently lack such a gene. The level of atheism throughout the rest of the developed world refutes any argument that religion is somehow a moral necessity. Countries like Norway, Iceland, Australia, Canada, Sweden, Switzerland, Belgium, Japan, the Netherlands, Denmark and the United Kingdom are among the least religious societies on Earth. According to the United Nations Human Development Report (2005) they are also the healthiest, as indicated by measures of life expectancy, adult literacy, per capita income, educational attainment, gender equality, homicide rate and infant mortality. Conversely, the 50 nations now ranked lowest in
terms of human development are unwaveringly religious.

I indicate right when in the roundabout, before the first exit, works fine.

On small roundabouts, it's good to show the person opposite that you are going to cross their path, before you enter the roundabout.

Small roundabouts only have a single lane of traffic in

Sure, it is certainly a bit easier to do it like that before you need to

That's because they also use the same bulb for running lights so they wear out. When I see one driving along with it on like that, I pull out in front of him and assume he's turning into my road. If I get hooted at, I use the ****** sign followed by alternate indicator flashes. Someday they might get a clue.

Anyone else annoyed by indicators that switch off too easily?

No.

I've only had two cars that annoy me (a Vauxhall and a Renault -
and Bod says his Vauxhall does it aswell), the rest worked
perfectly. I guess it's only some. But on googling it I found
many people complaining about BMWs, to the extent that they'd
prefer no cancelling at all.

I wasn't aware BMW's were fitted with indicaors. Must be that all
the ones I've seen have the blown bulbs.

That's because they also use the same bulb for running lights so
they wear out.

very unlikely since indicators are amber and running lights are
white.

The success of the "Wonder Bra" for under-endowed women has encouraged the designers to come out with a bra for over-endowed women.
It's called the "Sheep Dog Bra"- it rounds them up and points them in the right direction.

Kind of what I assumed. Mercs and Audis don't even appear to have them
as options.

Round here, more likely to be white van. Who then leaves the hazards on
when driving off. I want those hazard lights which apparently allow you to
park anywhere.

At least it shows he's probably undecided which way he wants to turn.
Whereas the BMW/Merc/Audi ******* know which way they are going but are
damned if they are telling anyone else.

Quite right too. You lesser mortals should know your place and keep well
back. Or would you rather have the old Russian system with effectively
