Ha, they have a god given right in their heads even without the indicator.

BMWs should just come with constant hazards as they could move in any directions with no other warning,

I'd say the safest thing would be to replace the airbag cartridge in the steering wheel with a live 12ga shell, but we digress

And don't you find the more basic the model, the more aggressive the driving?! Beware the 318 with non-alloy wheels...

Interesting. My thought has been to replace it with a spike, as a visible reminder.

Or you could just get shot in the face as soon as you try and buy one? Would stop the bmw syndrome as soon as it started

I fear some Audi drivers are just as bad though...
