I agree, but it can be difficult to know what to do when crossroads are slightly offset as at the top of our village. Some drivers wanting to stay on the A1123 going west(ish) see it as a crossroads, therefore DON'T indicate at all. Others indicate right then immediately left . It's a nightmare for a pedestrian - often with children - trying to cross the road by the village Green when there's lots of traffic. I just ignore the indicators as it's impossible to know exactly which way a car, tractor or lorry is going to go ........ sometimes you just have to wait for a lull in the traffic before you step out into the road. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

catfan 14,793 Posted July 14, 2018 Report Share Posted July 14, 2018 I would without hesitation bring a law in banning kids from pubs. Ban any form of smoking in a public place. Make it a criminal offence to smoke within half a mile of any hospital. Make parents responsible for their offspring. Immediately ban cycling on pavements. Make "Snowflakes" illegal. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I live in South Australia and though it may be a law it, is not policed and not always followed, especially at roundabouts and as for the law that says you must keep left unless overtaking on roads where the speed limit is 80 kph or more it is universally ignored and hardly ever policed. Even though it is legal to "undertake" on a multi-lane road with a speed limit of under 80 kph, after 40+ years in Oz I still feel uncomfortable doing it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
