Dynamically-controlled automatic turn signal cancellation in a vehicle

Dynamic speed-controlled automatic turn signal cancellation in a vehicle. An automatic turn signal cancellation system is configured detect steering wheel angle changes to indicate a vehicle turn and then a steering wheel angle returning towards turn neutral position for canceling turn signal. If steering wheel angle remains in the turn neutral position for a determined stability time, the turn is deemed completed and the turn signal is automatically cancelled. The stability time is dynamically determined inversely related to maximum steering wheel angle of the turn, because a steering wheel will return to a stable position faster from a larger steering wheel motion from a sharper turn. The automatic turn signal cancellation system can also dynamically set a threshold angle used to determine initial vehicle turn based on the speed of the vehicle because the faster the vehicle speed, the less steering wheel angle change is required to perform a turn.
