| Comment | Not a roundabout but the junction at the bottom of the M8 J19 Southbound exit is terribly designed.
The left hand lane has arrows for turn left or straight over, but if you try and go straight over you'll hit a giant concrete pillar, so they all end up swerving into the path of the middle lane.
From the right lane (right turn only) if you turn slightly too early you end up the wrong side of a traffic island, forced to go back up Charing Cross, so people tend to turn quite late and stray in to the path of right-turning traffic from the middle lane.
If you're in the middle lane, you first need to check the person to the left has noticed the pillar, then that the person on the right isn't going to drift into your lane on the expressway.
I know it's a lot of roads meeting in a tight space but there's no excuse for that pillar business. |
