Maybe they were following an outdated satnav map without that island on it? ;-) Reply to this message | Report message

There are a few roundabouts near me with this design and on several occasions I have witnessed cars slipping up the "ramp" bit. Ithas been down to braking too late at the roundabout and no where else to go! Reply to this message | Report message

Probably couldn't see round due to the offside A post ! I was driving a 3 yr old Picasso today and had to really crane forward on roundabouts and right hand bends. Quite common on some other stuff I drive. Stupid design. Reply to this message | Report message

>> >> Probably couldn't see round due to the offside A post ! Dont start me on that one! Id rather have a car I can see out of, so am able to avoid accidents, than a car that has all the safety features possible, and NEEDS them because your more likely to miss seeing something coming at you!

Two youths now being questioned, it says. So why didn't they lift/push/rock it back onto the road before anyone found out? Reply to this message | Report message
