I've got the opposite problem. At work, I sometimes have to cross the road near a busy mini roundabout, and the number of times I’ve almost been hit by a car is shockingly high. Cars will signal that they’re taking the first exit, only to suddenly accelerate straight ahead instead. It’s genuinely baffling.
