Zusammenfassung:In some embodiments of the present disclosure, techniques are provided for automatic turn signal deactivation in a vehicle with a trailer. The vehicle includes a camera monitoring system that provides video images for display devices that replace traditional side view mirrors. In some embodiments, video information is obtained from the camera monitoring system and is used to determine an angle of the trailer. Upon activation of a turn signal indicator, the video information is used to detect departure of the trailer angle from a centered region and the subsequent return of the trailer angle to the centered region in order to automatically deactivate the turn signal indicator.
