General Road and Highway Discussion

[danbrotherston]

The only close calls I've had at roundabouts have been when people don't signal, or don't use them properly (like the time I was in the inside lane turning left, and the car beside me decided it was doing a U-turn from the outside lane).

If people (in general) took time to figure out proper use and signalling, they would be much easier to navigate.  Unfortunately intentional ignorance leads to dislike.

Yeah, I've been there.  

I think there's also an unfortunate tendency in general to, when realizing you're going the wrong way, instead of going and turning around, to just go the way you want to go.  You see this on the freeway with people cutting across to (or off of) an exit ramp at the last second.
