    You don’t have to say “over” at the end when you’re writing things out.

    How would they wireless charge when it’s being held in their hand? Only explanation for not using a turn signal.

      Nah they just can’t be bothered to pay for BMW’s add-on Turn Signal Subscription. For only $5000 per year, any BMW owner can get access to up to 50 blinks per month.

        Is the blinks counting each instance of turning on the indicators or the blinks themselves? If it’s the latter BMW drivers might only have enough blinking quota for a single turn sitting at a red.

            Eh, the joke works both ways as 50 turns is still probably only a day’s worth. I just wanted to be fun and add a bit of substance since you (probably intentionally) was vague on the specifics.

        I think they’ve been doing this the whole time, and that’s why BMW drivers never signal,brake at the last second, and roll though lights,?

    Ha ha, joke’s on them. It’s the only wireless charger I’ve found that doesn’t work with my case on so I never use it!

      Bmw wireless charging: exists
      New iPhone: breaks

      Must be bmw’s fault, flawless logic.

    As someone who owns a Supra, good thing I don’t have an iPhone.
