Mississippi Bullfrog Posted December 10, 2019 Share Posted December 10, 2019 I was thinking about this thread today approaching a roundabout in the right hand lane intending to turn right. Mr White Van man obviously wasn't as he approached in the very left hand lane (of 4 lanes) which was a dedicated left turn only.He then proceeded to wander across all four lanes into the right hand lane, passed the first exit which took us down to 3 lanes where he drifted into the middle lane, then changed his mind and went back into the right hand lane, and then as a last minute gesture of bravado slapped on a left hand indicator and tried to make it to the next exit on the left. Only slightly spoiled by the fact he had already passed that exit was obliged to take a short cut across the traffic island.So it pays to assume the worst and be prepared for it.

Breadsnapper Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 I believe you are talking about roundabouts. Islands are land masses surrounded by water to the rest of the world outside the Midlands Ah yes you are right, roundabouts.It’s a bit like cobs, batches, barmcakes, etc.Outside certain areas people wouldn’t know what you meant. . You mean muffins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
