    Your cars do have indicators, mine does and they work.

    Oh and yellow hatched boxes on junctions means "do not drive into it unless you can exit it immediately", not "**** it, it's a queue of traffic, I've been waiting long enough I'm stopping in the box, it's not harming anyone". Grrr.

    Blimey

    I think you win the award for "Missed the point of the thread by the largest margin".

    Read it again and think about it.

    No...really think about it.

    Level crossings

    BMW drivers have realised that the level crossing barriers outside my local railway station have sensors and so dont come down whilst there is a car underneath. It therefore makes sense when queueing to queue across the track safe in the knowledge that if there is a train coming and the red lights start flashing the barrier will remain up and the signal holding up the train will stay red until the queue clears so you get safely through the barrier instead of having to wait for the train

    - Also mums with 4x4s filled with children use the same trick
