    Headlight or DRL? My headlights and dash lights do not turn off when I put the turn signal on. I’m not sure about DRL as I’ve never been outside the truck with the turn signal on.

    I have seen other brands where the DRL turns off when the signal is on. I’m sure it’s a safety feature so other drivers can see the signal better.

    I do, most others don't.

    Even our cyclists don't know how to signal properly. I thought it was all done with L arm, as that is the inside arm when cycling on the road, but apparently you just have point to where you are going with whatever arm you want.

    Fyi...I'm a cyclist and signal with L arm only
