General   (General discussion, talk about anything.)

One snag is, you can sit waiting for a gap in oncoming traffic, when you are going to turn right and the exit is clear, and in heavy traffic, this can be a long wait - meanwhile a number of oncoming vehicles take a left turn (to them, that is ie your right turn), and the buggers end up blocking the exit which had been clear when you positioned as permitted by Highway Code.

The nearest crossroad to where I live, you can almost guarantee this happens in rush hour traffic. Now made worse by traffic lights with green arrow filter: If you get a green light permitting you to move, you will be thwarted by exit being blocked, and you will be blocking traffic when the lights change. This has produced enormous tail backs of traffic: gridlock, preventing drivers from being able to clear from junction!

On occasion, the traffic lights fail, and the traffic is much more free flowing when the lights don't work.
