Judge: Kinsale roundabout ‘more a mystery than Fatima’

THE traffic lane system on one of Cork’s busiest roundabouts has been described by a circuit court judge as being more mysterious than the Third Secret of Fatima.

Judge Seán Ó Donnabháin’s made the comment at Cork Circuit Appeals Court while he was hearing evidence in an appeal case where a motorist was using a mobile phone as he negotiated one of the intersecting lanes at the Kinsale Road roundabout.

The judge remarked: “If you could find out what lane you were in on the Kinsale Road roundabout.”
