Anyone pulled up to a mini roadabout and everyones looking at eachother because you all pulled up at the same time. 3 cars sat ther for atleast 10 seconds with all of us waving eachother before i thought fuck it and went then the guy to the left of me decided to go aswell and nearly wrote me off. Was quite amusing

That happened to me a couple of weeks ago, but I usually go pretty quick because I can't be bothered to hang around for ages whilst nobody decides who's going first.

But if there is a car at every junction and everyone gets there at the same time, what do you do?

It normally happens to me on the way to work and I'm not as bothered about the pleasantries as everyone else that early in the morning

HA I have to use one to go to work, and every fucking time I get to it one of two things happens (I always indicate right to head towards work,) you can only go straight on on right (no left turn if you're heading the down the road) every fucker either stops, or when I'm indicating and turning the mother fuckers coming up the road don't stop until they're half way over and stare at me for trying to turn, when I'm in the right.

Very very few people seem to know how to use it properly.

If all junctions are busy, I just pull off. Right over the roundabout if I feel like pissing people off.

Trying having a 4 lane roundabout with 5 sets of traffic lights, 5 roads coming onto, lanes which are clearly dotted out and where to come off/which lane to be in.

And trying to contend with people who just wander across lanes/realise there a spaztic and are 3 lanes from where there coming off.
