    All this talk of roundabouts and you've missed the most annoying / dangerous motoring habit. Lane drift.

    On small roundabouts with two lanes, a lot of people going straight on will straight-line both lanes; ie, with reference to the diagram above, start in the blue lane, be in (or halfway across) the green lane at the 'apex' of the roundabout, and exit back in the blue again.

    There's one of these little buggers that I have to turn right at on my way home, and having a driver on the left not try to run me off the road is an exception rather than the rule.

    Related to this is bigger roundabouts where people think that lane markings are a rule of thumb and just drift around across them as they go round. Grr, argh.
