Electronic turn signals on high spec cars will always cancel, either by noting the turn and return the steering wheel or by timing out. High end motorcycles will do a similar thing, either noting the tilt of the vehicle or timing out. At the lower end of the market the turn signal is cancelled by the steering wheel operating a mechanical device. If the steering wheel is not turned far enough the device will not engage and returning the wheel to the ahead position will not cancel the turn signal. The turn signals on lower spec motorcycles are generally cancelled by pressing the centre of the turn signal switch.

Semi tractors are usually not equipped with self-cancelling turn signals so, the driver needs to be sure to cancel the signal after the turn.

The turn signal turns off only after very sharp turns on a 2006 Impala. Can the turn signal be adjusted so that it is more sensitive?

When you're going straight down the highway your steering wheel should be "centered", meaning that the emblem should be upright. If the steering wheel is "off center", you may need to have the front end aligned so that the turn signal "cancel" lever catches it without those sharp turns.
