Using lane change indicators instead of turn signals doesn’t work?

 

[MellowJohnny]

Kyle's Out Of Spec review was much better - this guy doesn't really seem to be familiar with much, calling SuperCruise "GM's similar autonomous driving thing...". That's where I stopped watching

And that guy on the bike passed him like he was standing still, and his speedo read 67 mph at the time. Death wish.

Not the most informative video for BC owners, I agree. Waiting patiently for MachE VLOG's video.

What I've seen is you have to hold the signal or push it all the way up. You can't just tap it and have it do a lane change.

 

[Mach-Lee]

He didn't figure out you can just tap the turn signals to change lanes...

He also had an audio glitch there with the chimes playing through the cluster instead of the speakers.

Once again, I agree Ford should improve charging speed and display live charging kW speed in the instrument cluster.

Not a very in-depth review.

I almost finished editing it. I wanted to have it done by now but I've been slammed with work from my day job. And now I have a long weekend trip so it won't be done until next Wednesday. Liv has been cranking through editing so we'll soon have a charging video and a range test up. Plus, we have Bolt EUV video as well.

Our BC 1.2 video took awhile to edit because we tried to capture a lot of different scenarios including rain, traffic, and night time.

He’s remarkably uninformed. Doesn’t seem to understand how to set the automatic speed adjustment to X amount relative to the speed limit. Claims it’s not sporty while driving in Whisper (Sleepy) mode. Good grief.

Looking forward to it. Specially that, from a performance perspective, it was clearly the best system in Kyle's hogback challenge. It came out in second only because of the "dead driver" portion of the test. It didn't stop the car, it didn't turn on the hazard lights, it didn't honk, nor pulled the seat belt.

Don't all driver assistance tech systems require just a tap on the turn signal? The reviewer seems a bit ignorant.

GM Super Cruise will automatically change lanes without you touching anything. FSD Beta will as well.

Sorry, I meant that when automatic lane change is instigated, it merely requires a tap on the turn signal. I don't know of any systems that require a full depress?

 

[JustSomeQuickGuy]

You don't need to fully engage the turn signal for it to change lanes. Here's a quick demo of me using it. Also shows how it will move in the lane when you have cars coming to the left or right of you.

Yeah, you just need to make the turn signal blink by wherever method. I think they all work with tap.

Hmm, what happened there at the end? Was another car moving into the lane?
