After 1/10th of a mile if left on too long. As for after turning, I can only guess but it may be controlled by the same sensor that sets off the flashers when the alarm is armed.

there is a little gremlin that knows when you turned, in the non riding winter months he moonlights as one of Santa's secret elves!

No evidence of this but I seemed to notice that they also cancel when you accel. and shift from 1st to 2nd etc. and don't necessarily have to be turning.

From M.O.M.

"The turn signal swithches are used by the turn signal module to control turn signal operation based on vehicle speed, vehicle acceleration and turn completion."

Signals ,speed sensor {transmission mounted } alarm, speedo, are all controlled by the TSSM module. It is buried under your seat, Don't touch it ! If this little gem ever goes bad on you, get a loan to fix it!
