Ugh! Like at the Hough, when they sit there at the lights waiting to turn right, not knowing you can venture into the hatching in that case....Having a box junction then invites the problem of people not venturing into it (if turning right) as they're thinking they are doing something wrong...
The stupidity of the Stafford motorist truly knows no bounds.Ugh! Like at the Hough, when they sit there at the lights waiting to turn right, not knowing you can venture into the hatching in that case....

... Only understood by us out-of-towners, especially Geordies, we are especially good at knowing when we are in the right.... People from Stafford have no idea how traffic lights, yellow box's, bus lanes or merge lanes work.... they are essentially secret symbols - of those that can see them, the proportion who understand the rules will be small...
I didn't notice any today....Pretty certain there was by 17:40 yesterday.
You may have mutated..?I didn't notice any today....

It's comforting to know you drive around completely oblivious to your surrounding. No wonder you moved to Stafford...Clearly I've lived here too long!
It's still dark when I go to work at 6.30am, and I was only concentrating on getting home at 3.30pm today, I didn't need to look and see if a yellow box had appeared as I was turning left.....

2 opposite, you have the traffic from Wickes side and Halfords side going at the same time, both have the option to turn but across each other. It's a nightmare. In all likelihood in the future I will turn out near the job centre if I am on Halfords side or turn left along the new road if I am on Wickes side.
Corporation Street/Weston Road/Riverway/Lammascote used to be a roundabout, until it was 'improved'.Isn’t this fairly common place in Stafford?
It’s a bad idea yes, but if someone does manage to crash on it how do they manage to get down Weston Road?
Try driving the Étoile in Paris or even better, riding it.The Magic Roundabout at Hemel Hempstead (there's a few of these about.) I was once told by somebody that entered it, and emerged four hours later, that he saw a Roman Legion marching near the centre, still trying to find their way out ......
Been around there many times (many years ago mind and in an Artic ) and it is simply a roundabout followed by another & another and if viewed as such it actually works quite well.The Magic Roundabout at Hemel Hempstead (there's a few of these about.)
