Don’t forget to adjust your car clock 🤣

Time to set the clock back by one hour at least where I live.

One of the annoyances with my car 😡

May be newer models do this automatically now.

I'm the flip of you and the motorcycles are the worst becuase they are always trying to get it done on a little digital dash with one button.

The BMW is the easiest of the things left I have to do it to.

I wonder how many car accidents the day after daylight savings time are a result of drivers trying to change their car's clock while driving...?

^ I think all of them.

Or maybe it is adjusting the biological clock that is causing accidents.

Never understood why I can set the time region, but DST isn't a thing. What's even the point of the region setting?

I think that the region setting is for the mirror compass magnetic calibration..
