Too Fast

So, why go into a roundabout at an approach at like 45mph plus? I mean lets face it, you're already going above the speed limit. I am guessing that these people have forgotten the rule that you MUST GIVE WAY to someone who is already on the roundabout, whether you are off to the right or in front of them!

So there we are, small rant for today. People are driving too fast, even if it's only the cause of 5-7% of accidents. Speed if you like, but do so when it's safe to go over the limit. I doubt doing 75mph on a motorway will really put too much at risk - but going very fast up to a roundabout certainly does.

Roundabouts with Weird Junctions and Lights

I had the misfortune to hit a few roundabouts on the way home from seeing 300 (very good by the way) and they were in a bloody awful state. One of them had lights changing AT THE WRONG TIME. Not very good at all. Another one had multiple exit points for various lanes which then converged rather worryingly. Whoever thinks these things up needs to be driven around them a few times to see how badly wrong their designs can go.
