DRIVE May 29, 2025

Automatic turn signal cancellation in a vehicle for a roundabout is disclosed. The automatic turn signal cancellation system is configured to not prematurely cancel a turn signal until the exit of the roundabout is confirmed. A first turn signal activation in an opposite direction of a first turn is detected to signify possible entry into a roundabout. Automatic cancellation of the first turn signal is delayed in response to detecting remaining within the roundabout based on the detected vehicle turning pattern. This can prevent the driver having to again activate the first turn signal within the roundabout. Detection of subsequent activation of a second turn signal opposite of the first turn signal direction may signify exiting the roundabout. The second turn signal is cancelled if the vehicle is detected to return to a turn neutral position steering direction for a defined period of time signifying completion of roundabout exit.
