Not the end of the world this, as my car has some poke, and it may have just been one of those days, but .....

is going around a traffic island to any exit you want done on the nearside these days ?

and .... part two, should you pip your horn, flash your lights, and make hand gestures when you get blatted by someone who has positioned "as it used to be done" ?

that is all ...... lol

(twice today, and not the same car as I passed both exiting the island, I had someone I was following enter an island on the nearside, no indication, and their intended exit, as it turned out, was at "three o'clock" on approach, and twice it seemed to be assumed that I was "the ahole")

There's a roundabout near me where "clever s" in their Audi diesels always use the left hand lane to go right when there are more than three cars queuing to go right. They are so clever in that they all enter the roundabout not indicating and then when at the 12 o clock second exit indicate right and go round to the 3rd exit at 9 o clock.

Utter cocks.

Other Marques also do this but it pretty much has to be a turbo diesel with a self important image such as a camp pickup but in the main it's Audis.

Yes, these are the same people who enter and leave a motorway sliproad directly to or from the middle lane....
