Menace of the driver who fails to go full circle

YOUR correspondent Sabrina Straventa (Irish Examiner letters, March 11) expressed her “surprise at the number of Cork people who do not know how to drive through a roundabout.”

Menace of the driver who fails to go full circle

She has a valid point. Driving standards on roundabouts in Cork really are dreadful. Driving on the much maligned Kinsale Road roundabout is probably the worst case.

However, we can see crazy driving at all roundabouts, with drivers cutting across other traffic basically because they cannot be bothered to get into the correct lane before they enter the roundabout. This is despite generally excellent signage on roads leading to Cork roundabouts.
