Hi,
I was out with a pupil today in my well marked learner car and came to a relatively recently constructed mini roundabout in a rural town. As it is a new road layout (used to be a crossroads) it is wise to be cautious as other drivers may not be aware of the change. Any way, lots of drivers get confused at mini roundabouts even tho' the same rules apply as to the bigger ones!
We were approaching the roundabout, taking the road ahead, second exit, so quite correctly, my pupil was slowing to asses the traffic coming from the right and not signalling yet. A car travelling fast from the road ahead, not signalling, no intention of yielding, drove straight over the white circle and shook his fist at my pupil!
I reckon he must have been born able to drive! What a pity so many drivers has so little patience for Learners....
