Nope, they forgot to connect the indicators. That's the only reason I can think that none of the BMW drivers actually use them.

Only because using an indicator causes cancer

Nah - BMW indicators are only to be used if you need to swerve maniacally across two or more lanes of traffic.

To be fair I think 90% of cars are not fitted with indicators. Either that or I missed a meeting where they said you don't need to use them anymore, especially if you're turning right at a roundabout.

Don't go blaming other people, just because you were too tight to cough up for the optional telepathy upgrade!
