Had my hazard lights (and headlights) on for about an hour and long story short, now my driver's side angle eyes and driver's side tail lights won't turn off. Anyone know what's going on there?

Thanks!

Turn your car on and off and they will go out. You bumped your blinker stalk when you got out of the car. Nothing to do with hazzard lights

It's a European hold over for parking on narrow streets at night. it will illuminate the exposed corners of your car. Push the blinker stalk up and the right corners light. Push the
stalk down and the left corners light. Considering how E60's eat batteries, I bet they have an abundance of dead batteries in Europe if they actually the capability.
