Recall on all BMWs

I guess there is universal service action for many BMW drivers!

Don't turn signals sort of take away the element of surprise?

I'm in the minority, I guess, 'cause I use mine most of the time. Other times I just can't be bothered. Give me time, I'm fresh out of driver's ed. :p

Hee hee. Got this email from a friend, check out #15.


From now on you must adhere to the following as laid out in your owners manual;

1. Never again use your indicators - ever
2. Always pull out in front of people
3. Commence U-turns for no reason
4. On the highway, insist on hogging the outside lane
5. On the highway, if anyone else is in YOUR lane, drive 2 mm from their rear bumper
6. Attempt to get the finger and have someone blast their horn at you at least thrice a day
7. Refer to your car as "The Bee Emm" (Not "a BM")
8. Slow down to look at hot chics no matter how busy the traffic is
9. Park wherever the heck you like - you have The Bee Emm now - it's compulsory
10. DON'T use your rear view mirror - for anything
11. At road junctions, NEVER let anyone out in front of you - EVER
12. Should someone allow you out of a junction, do not wave or thank them - they are supposed to (See point 2)
13. At traffic lights, assume they are green always
14. You should only allow emergency service vehicles past - but only after a struggle
15. Feel free to disengage your brake lights - you don't need to tell people what you are doing, you have The Bee Emm
16. Speed limits are for peasants

As I always tell my kids, some drivers opted not to get the optional turn signals. Applies to many makes though, not just BMWs.

I agree fully with number 8 and don't worry cause the guys behind you will thank you.

Yaeh... and if it's a she-driver behind you, you'd be driving her pace anyway.
#14 and 16 ... too funny.
