Some manufacturers including VW cut the power if you push the brake at the same time as the accelerator. Maddening for those who like to use heel and toe!

Being like Gareth a beneficiary of John Lyons on road training I find myself agreeing with all his comments here. Once I have moved offside the indicator seems to me to serve no further purpose. Changing lanes on multilane roads I cancel my indicator at about the same point that many drivers apply t...

My recollection of drives with JL is that the signal before an overtake was to tell drivers behind that you are looking for the overtake- so they are less likely to try to overtake you.
