I usually leave my bedroom windows open when I go to work, and today was no different. Unfortunately this meant coming home to a flat reeking of smoke! Here's a photo from the bedroom window; Just leave me your street name and number and i,ll make sure nobody robs you while you,re out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

19QOS19 Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 This goes beyond petty tbh. The fuckwit drivers in this town struggle to manoevre around 2 lane roundabouts as it is. Now our moronic council have decided to almost encourage them doing it incorrectly by completely ballsing up the road markings. I wonder who would have to fit the bill if I went around that roundabout correctly and got hammered on the right hand side. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder who would have to fit the bill if I went around that roundabout correctly and got hammered on the right hand side. That may not be incorrect though if the predominant traffic flow is for drivers to turn left at that particular roundabout. The general rules that the second diagram shows are trumped by signage. The one on the A92 at Kirkcaldy coming from Dunfermline allows you to turn right from both left and right lanes for instance. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But FWIW, on that particular part the flow would be predominantly going straight over or right. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do a bit of design work, and I can often mark them like that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By doing that there they're more likely to have two lots of traffic queuing for the right hand lane whereas had they had left well alone and not made a complete arse of it the traffic would have flowed better. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you still use "Picardy" and "Arcady" for roundabout design these days? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You would decide by criteria like traffic flow rather than just because you feel like it though? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MONKMAN Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 Leaving the new hospital. Seems perfectly reasonable to have it the way it is then. Left lane for traffic going up the Glen, right lane for the by-pass and Garroch Loaning. I’d imagine the Garroch Loaning exit will be least used, so doubt it requires its own lane. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swarley Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 Chocolate bars ARE getting smaller Agreed. Bought some Jaffa Cakes last week. Apart from there only being about 8 in the packet they were about 5cm in diameter.That's my excuse for scoffing the whole packet and I'm sticking to it. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
19QOS19 Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 Do it. I did that once. Slammed the door with the string attached and the tooth stayed in. Didn't have the balls to try it again so went to take the string off the tooth and the tooth came out in the process. Result, 50p up the next morning B) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
