RANT ALERT! Maybe if the traffic lights in Harlow were actually set up sensibly people wouldn't feel the urge to jump them. It took about a Year to remove the ones on second avenue that were causing huge tailbacks... a single bus in the bus lane could trigger the lights to change 3 times. Most of the bus lane lights are unnecessary... simple white lines could give busses priority and speed up traffic. Another classic is the bus with no lay by, again on second avenue when travelling East. There can be an empty bus lane in the Westerly direction, yet cars can't get past a buss at the bus stop. An 8 year old kid with a box of dinky cars could design a better traffic system.

Re: The yellow car at the end of your video. YOU were in the wrong lane not the yellow car, HE was using the roundabout properly. I suggest you reacquaint yourself with the highway code especially section 184 on roundabouts before posting videos.

MG Samps If you’re not familiar with that roundabout, it does also state in the video that the yellow car used a left ONLY lane to use the last exit of the roundabout. Not sure what you think is right about that but I hope you don’t drive.

Yes I do drive mate (for over 40 years with no accidents or convictions & full clean licence for cars and motorcycles) and live in Harlow, this is the roundabout to Catherines way (left) and southern way to Milwards (straight on) from water lane. The driver of the small yellow car was following "standard" roundabout procedure, that is, to be in the left lane to enter from the 6 o'clock position and exit at 12 o'clock position on the outside which is what it states in the highway code (unless otherwise directed) Unfortunately he missed the small signpost (and road markings) advising at this particular roundabout the left lane was to filter left. This is not compulsory but an advisor otherwise the signs would be blue or red. He was possibly not familiar with this roundabout layout or area and clearly was not paying full attention (easily done when you're confused in an area you don't know so don't be too hard on people) As far as him having a pop at you, he is as you say in the wrong there. I'm sure you have done the same at some point in your driving career on more than one occasion probably. One would think you had better things to do with your time instead of scouring the roads of Essex berating and filming drivers for small misdemeanors, were all human and all make mistakes from time to time. No harm was done -move on.

That roundabout has clear signs to show all road users to use the left land for exiting and the right lane for going straight over.

MG Samps, you’ve quoted from the Highway Code but yet fail to follow road signs clearly shown on this video. It maybe suggested to read the complete Highway Code, not just section 184.
