It’s the beeping for me. The goddamned infernal, unstoppable beeping.

Come to a stop sign? Beep. Pulling into an intersection? Beep. Backing up? Lots of beeps. A car is next to you in the other lane? Beep. You turned on your blinker? Beep beep beep beep. You changed lanes? Beep. Going above the speed limit? Beep. The car saw a speed limit sign? Beep. You adjusted some setting? Beep.

Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep. All goddamn day long.

Maybe you can disable some of it, but only temporarily, only for one drive. The next time you start the car again, it will go back to beeping, and it’s not easy to disable, either – it requires digging deep into arcane, non-user-friendly menus. I will never own a ‘modern’ car until there’s a way to permanently disable all this fucking beeping.
