Why can't BMW drivers work out how to use the indicators?
Answers:
HAHAHA thats what my fella said other day.. dont fcuking bm`s have indicators then??
It's a bit like Volvo drivers with the accelerator. Must be hard to find.
because they are one step away from being taxi drivers
As BMW stands for Bloody Mad Wankers you can't expect them to know anything about driving
HA HA, its beacause if they did that, you would know which way they were going, and obviously anyone driving a BMW won't want everyone knowing where there off too. =)
Because you only use indicators on motorways as a warning to other users, After overtaking on a motorway you should pull into the first lane and as this is normal you don't need to indicate. Overtaking it is worth indicating to tell the driver in front you intend to take over. BMW driver tend to overtake in all situations so they assume you know they intend to overtake.
When going around roundabouts you always go right so no real need to indicate right as that is the only way you can go, as you turn off a roundabout you always turn left so it is a good habit to indicate left as you pass the exit before your exit. If you are taking the first exit then indicate left before you reach roundabout. BMW drivers assume you know where they are going.
The term "beemer" started as an acronym for the abbreviation "BMW," adapted from the early-20th century British pronunciation of BSA (as "beeser" or "beezer"), whose motorcycles were often racing BMWs. Over time, the term became closely associated with BMW motorcycles.
The term "bimmer" was later coined to refer (exclusively) to BMW automobiles. As such, use of the word "beemer" to refer to a BMW automobile is frowned upon by some BMW enthusiasts, because it is the term used for motorcycles. Although the distinction is completely arbitrary, to this day, the media, movies, and most people still use the term "beemer" to refer to the automobiles. Interestingly, in the German language, the correct pronunciation of the term "bimmer" is "beemer."
The initials BMW are pronounced "beh emm veh" in German.
BMW is also the abbreviation in the UK for a cocktail of Baileys, Malibu and Whisky.
Community
BMW has always had a very tight and loyal community following. They're one of the few automakers that support driving their cars to their limits, suggesting "spirited driving" in certain operation manuals. In the summer of 2001, BMW even went as far as starting the BMW Films website, showcasing some sporty models being driven to extremes. These videos are very popular within the enthusiast community and have opened the eyes of many owners looking for a sporty/fun car. However, even with all this success, on October 21st, 2005, the BMW Films were taken offline.
The BMW enthusiast community however, remains extremely active. Online forums like bimmerfest.com, E46fanatics.com, Baybimmers.com, M3forums.com, E90Fanatics.com, and bimmerforums.com are examples of how loyal BMW enthusiasts are. They are some of the most active car forums on the web.
Every year since 1999, BMW enthusiasts have met up in Santa Barbara, CA to attend "Bimmerfest." Perhaps one of the largest brand-specific gatherings in the U.S. Over 3000 people attended this past year (2006), and there were over 1000 cars present.
Do they have them ?? I know they have a interior mirror as the woman I was following the other day was using it to do her makeup while she had a mobile wedged under her chin and she was doing 60mph on the motorway!! but she still didnt see me when I went to overtake and she pulled out nearly putting me into the central barriers, there's never a copper around when you want one!!!
Because they are either thick bastards or drug dealers high on their own merchandise
I think they are optional extra in bmw, usually driving by arragant,self important,rules are for other people,selfish drivers. Nice cars shame about 80% who drive them!
The answer is simple. it is because, for some reason, BMWs seem to attract the more arrogant and thoughtless of drivers. Many surveys have been done on aggressive driving throughout the world (well, America and Europe/UK) and the top hated car is always the BMW.
Which car will you see in the outside lane of a motorway doing 20 MPH over the limit, flashing its headlights as it tailgates the law abiding motorists? Which car suddenly turns without signalling? Which car (usually dark coloured ) drives without lights on a rain swept motorway and overtakes with no warning? Which car will park in the supermarket car park and take up 1.5 spaces? Which car is the favoured vehicle of drug dealers? The answer to all of these questions is 'BMW'.
If you think these are exaggerated comments, go to Google, insert "BMW, arrogant, careless, annoying" in the search window and you'll get thousands of returns; some of the reports you'll read are by reputable, well known motoring journalists, too.
BMW do not like this view of their products and buyers, and at one time I believe they proposed preventing older models from appearing on the secondhand market where young 'reckless types' could buy them cheaply.
And do you recall the VW advert a few years back where a long haired 'yuppie' was seen driving a VW at mad speeds? When he got back to the VW showroom he tossed the keys to the salesman. and then was seen walking towards another car showroom where you could just make out what seemed like a BMW emblem. It was cleverly done. and made the point beautifully.
And BMW drivers are still like that..! The only answer is to be extra vigilant when a BMW is near you.
the peeps who own those motors are so dumb they think they are broken cause the keep flashing so they dother using them, lol
