Comment on Tesla is banned from driving schools because of new turn signals
Threeme2189@sh.itjust.works 10 months agoThat’s not the issue, imagining driving through a roundabout that curves left and having to find a button somewhere on the steering wheel, which is at an angle, in order to indicate right before turning tight in order to exit the roundabout.
A stalk will always be in the same position. The same cannot be said for buttons.

Your don’t have to “find” anything, it’s right next to your thumb

Drivers frequently change their hand placement as they turn the wheel. You lose precision and basic ability to manipulate the wheel if you don’t.

Quoting yourself won’t magically make you right.

Again, it depends on the angle of the steering wheel. The buttons may be upside down if the car is turning sharply enough.

Again, no it doesn’t. The button should always be in the exact same position, relative to your thumb.
If you’re turning that sharply, you’re not going to need turn signals.

Do you stick your hands to the steering wheel with Krazy glue?
You can’t be serious if you think people don’t take sharp turns from time to time and have to indicate.
