Roundabout lane discipline (or the lack of). The amount of times recently, I’ve approached a roundabout where there’s two lanes and I’ve been in the right hand lane and another car in the left hand lane on approach but as soon as you both enter the roundabout, the car in the left lane veers into the right lane.

Bonus peeve, cars that use the right hand indicator instead of the left hand indicator to indicate they are about to exit the roundabout. I don’t mean those that have been going right at the roundabout and have just forgotten to turn the indicator off. I mean people who purposely put on their right hand indicator as they are coming off the roundabout. WTF? I even encountered somebody the other day in front of me in one of the lanes that bypasses a roundabout (but where you have to give way to vehicles exiting the roundabout) indicate right. I was thinking - WTF is he going to try cut across to get back on the roundabout the other way - no he was intending to turn left.


There’s a 2 lane roundabout near our house. It’s quite small, and when 2 cars are there at the same time they both need to keep to their lanes. However, people going straight over (left lane) have a habit of just taking a straight line across it through sheer laziness. It’s caused no ends of near misses and bumps.

We have to turn right on it to head home, and you end up watching the car to your left more than watching for traffic coming from the right. When you have to hit the horn to warn them they’re about to hit you by veering across your lane, you get the hand gestures and dogs abuse as if you’re in the wrong! Some folk are just idiots
