Anyone else on here amazed at the stupidity of placing pedestrian crossings right on busy roundabouts as they are now doing around where I live?
I am usually concentrating on traffic entering the roundabout to my right, looking for a space to pull out into, but I have on a couple of occasions recently started to pull out on to a busy roundabout only to find myself a few feet away from the back of a stationary car on the roundabout because the pedestrian crossing on the first exit to my left had been activated.
Is it just me - or is this an accident waiting to happen???
