Hi guys, can you have a look at something ?
I'm talking about a roundabout in Glasgow, near Silverburn.
It's known to be deadly for cyclists and it's a prime example of how you shouldnt do roundabouts.
Now, have a look at how you drive from Barrhead Road to Brockburn Road













The last two images are showing what I'm talking about. That inside lane is the only lane which can be used to take that exit.
To me, it split's in a most stupid way I can imagine.
Is it just my lack of understanding or is it really a bad design ?

What do you guys think ?

Yeah, but then you have to change the lane and you are at risk of collision with someone driving how I marked it. And you will be at fault.

Nope, pretty sure the right one.
