Funny how there's a marked improvement in the traffic flow when a cop on a bike parks up on the Resmed corner to observe the roundabout. All of a sudden it works again - well as best as it can with the "prioritised" flow effect generated by all the right turn traffic.

When people follow the rules (ie, when a cop is there) it flows much better - that's why they implement rules.

But you can't educate people with self-entitlement issues.....
You wouldnt believe what I saw was just around the corner in Victoria st where the car dealers are, those 3 round abouts through the 50km stretch. Up near the hillsong/shell servo gets pretty out of control some days.
