On: My rude-ass car

[xyzelement]

I am trying to figure out why this doesn't happen in my car or happens naturally enough that it doesn't bother me. I have to keep an eye out for it.

Might just be that you are the rare one actually using the turn signals silencing the warning:)

You've misunderstood what we're talking about. Using the turn signal is what triggers the warning in this case. The car is correctly detecting that there's a car in your blind spot, but it incorrectly interprets the turn signal as "I'm going to change lanes" rather than "I'm making a turn".

I see, sorry
