roundabout at newton circle & driving in singapore

MummyThreeStreams:
vks2010, I know! I really get irritated with these drivers who try to move from the inside right lane, cross 3 lanes at one go, to exit the roundabout. i always say, if miss the exit so be it, just drive round again lor!
Exactly! First of all, it's not too difficult to position yourself in the lane you want to be in before you even get on the roundabout. And if you miss your exit, just go another round. Won't get lost going round and round. -

In the Singapore context, i would take it to mean \"Don't come in because I am not going to give way to you!\"yes, yes, yes, finally clear markings on the road for a smoother drive.
yesterday was the 2nd time i had used this after being away for a while and was a bit uncomfortable cos' of the jam + bad driving here. so i was very very :dancing: :dancing: :dancing: when i saw clear markings on the road.

okay, another question to all, what do you think it means when a driver flashes his light at you once or twice when you are doing the following:
1) when you are trying to cut into another lane
2) when you are waiting for an opportunity to move onto the road from the carpark, your house etc. -

Still remember when in Msia, we were trying to figure out which exit to take and we went round and round the roundabout like 5 times. And in the end still took the wrong exit. Haha.
The Newton roundabout is stressful. -
Another pet peeve - people who drive right into yellow box junctions, blocking the path of cars trying to get into the main road, for whom the yellow box junction was drawn. Some people either have no manners or bought their highway code exam results.

I think the no traffic light system is actually safer coz people have to actually look out for other cars. I think there was an experiment somewhere in Europe and they found that the accident rate went down.haha, driving in toronto was the best experience i ever had.
at an intersection, all cars stop and the first one to reach there has the right to go first follow by the 2nd arrival. a nod of the head is usually the signal. there was no rush and everyone was very gracious. but guess they are not always not in a hurry so no need to beep and beep and beep. -

haha! good one!
