I just had a look at my dashcam for today's incident but it was too long ago, I forgot I've only got a small memory card in it as the last one went faulty. It's only got the last 2 hours and it was at 3pm. damn!

 

I was heading to M'Hall from Bawtry in middle lane, (left lane is M1S only) and car in left hand, sped past me and the van in front to overtake us both.

Shame I can't show it, because on the way back in down Attercliffe Road I got cut up by a biker, if I had been accelerating, he would have crashed into the traffic light kerb. Near where Zeenats was. If I'd caught the first, I'd have this in too for good measure.

 

 

It will never stop! Trouble is there is too much content for people new to the thread to read! So round and round we go!

 

We could do with a round-up:

 

1. Early on the poll lent towards white car wrong.

2. Plenty of arguing

3. Many people still believe the white car was in the wrong

4. They are all wrong

Would you believe it? Another roundabout where arrows point straight on in the left lane but the white lines make you go left. Surely not two painting errors within a quarter of a mile of each other?

Oh my giddy aunt. Same roundabout different approach. This roundabout should be a deathtrap.

Or maybe you can cross white lines if instructed to do so on the approach. Just a thought.

 

Good find! I use this roundabout several times a week. I always use the lane marked by the arrows to go straight on. I've never had someone try to turn left from the middle lane and cut me up. Maybe I've just been lucky...

Nope, still the black car at fault.

 

Ultimately its the fault of bad design of that junction/ roundabout.

On the same roundabout j34 south from bawtry road the lane iscorrectly signed left turn. The middle lane then becomes the first lane before the motorway bridge. The Sheffield road from Meadowhall is incorrectly signed left or straight on in the left lane. The left lane on the roundabout goes to j34n. The middle lane for some reason splits in two for Sheffield road to Rotherham and bawtry causing confusion and lane changing entering and exiting the underpass. Not an intuitive junction
