What does this lever do?

I can’t believe no one has figured this out. What you need to do is this. Get on the highway, in the left lane. Do about 35-40mph. Then you push the lever in an upward motion at the same exact time, this is key, you jerk the steering wheel to the right. You see everyone in NY does this, mainly the Uber drivers. They are professionals so they are definitely using it correctly.

Look to the left,
Look to the right,
You'll see the light.
Go up, fall down.

Again long forearms I can reach it the length of the lever isnt the issue. Anyone that couldnt possibly reach it is making it up cause you would have to be a child to not be able to reach that lever.
Absolutely. I’ve been told that the length matters less that the roundth. As a general life principal, I mean.

That is a Turn Signal, enables brights, etc....Or are you talking about that little connector by the ignition button? Sorry dont mean to be a smart ass but it looks like you are asking what the turn signal arm is..... The little USB-C connector probably goes to a Radar detector or dash cam.

Yea I was just taking the piss about all the recent questions about things that should be pretty obvious or are easily figured out with a quick google search. Btw that USB connector is for my phone when its in the mount.
