What does automatic turn signal mean?

Possible causes of automatic turn signals include short circuits, faulty flasher relays, excessive contact gap, and other factors. Here is an introduction to car turn signals: 1. Introduction: Turn signals are important indicator lights that are activated when a motor vehicle turns to alert vehicles and pedestrians in front, behind, and to the sides. 2. Usage: (1) When a car enters or exits a roundabout. (2) When traffic in the current lane is congested and a lane change is required. (3) When making a U-turn, the left turn signal should be activated, and the driver should observe whether there are any vehicles approaching from the front or rear before proceeding. (4) When pulling over to park, the right turn signal should be activated in advance, and the driver should observe the traffic dynamics on the right rear side before pulling over. (5) When leaving a parking spot, the left turn signal should be activated in advance, and the driver should observe the traffic dynamics on the left rear side before merging into the traffic lane.
Automatic turn signals are an intelligent feature in cars, meaning the vehicle automatically activates the turn signal when it senses you're about to turn, eliminating the need to manually flip the lever. This feature primarily relies on sensors and computer systems to monitor steering wheel angles or lane changes, then instantly triggers the light signal. For someone like me who's been driving for decades, it's a real blessing—I used to forget to turn on the signals, especially in rainy or foggy conditions, which could easily lead to accidents. Now, for new drivers or elderly motorists, this feature reduces mental stress and helps avoid fines from traffic police due to oversight. However, don’t rely on it entirely; the system might occasionally misjudge, so staying alert and manually supplementing is still necessary. Overall, this feature makes roads safer and more orderly.
