Abstract
In a turning direction indicator, a count section which counts a number of rotations in a case where an indication operation section is operated to a position indicating one turning direction and the one turning direction is displayed and where the steering wheel is rotated one time or more in the one turning direction. The counted number of rotations is stored. A determination section determines whether the stored value is a predetermined value indicating that the number of rotations is 0 in a case where the steering wheel is operated in the one turning direction and thereafter operated in another turning direction and where the steering angle becomes a predetermined angle or less. A cancellation section does not cancel display of the turning direction if the stored value is determined as being not the predetermined value, and otherwise cancels the display of the turning direction.
