It wo t be an issue for small knocks, but if someone is maimed or killed it will be about who drove appropriately to the condition. The law says you must approach a roundabout with caution. Whatever the circumstances, if you kill a pedestrian, you are doomed. Good lawyer would argue successfully I think currently that its not a roundabout.

Even worse if it is shared space when you can just wander amongst the traffic. Lots seem to be doing just that already, me included. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There isn’t anything down there to suggest it is a roundabout never mind make it one legally yet the stupid road markings which are purely decorative and could be zig zags or anything, suggest to idiots that it is 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
