    Thought t'was very true alright, i particularly liked the following:

    Roundabouts

    Signals and position. Unless you are taking your driving test.

    When taking the first exit

    * approach in the left-hand lane
    * don't signal – keep other drivers waiting to enter the roundabout guessing.

    When taking any other exit before the last exit

    * approach in the left-hand lane
    * straddle both lanes while on the roundabout
    * ignore your blind spot
    * signal left just as you exit the roundabout.

    Ah roundabouts, don't remind me.

    My favourite:
    "If another driver flashes his headlights at you when you are waiting to pull out of a junction, take this as a signal to slip into a coma and not notice."

    It's so bloody true.

    Oh no no. You're supposed to indicate right like an idiot regardless of which exit you're taking. Don't forget to not bother to indicate left at any point as well, it keeps other motorists on their toes. Smart motorists can read your mind and screw everyone else.
