That's what most debaters say when they are losing the debate - "Aw this is boring!"?

First of all I didn't say Aw, your twisting my words to make people believe I'm losing a debate. What I should have said in hindsight is, we'll have to agree to disagree.

I have my point of view which I believe is valid and you have your views which you believe are valid. And both are in fairness.

I have driven everywhere in this country and a fair bit abroad, actually just back from Spain, where they use roundabouts too and funnily enough have signs over the road stating which lane to approach and where that will bring you. I also have a full driving license in 5 categories of vehicle. So I'd class myself as a well accomplished and experienced driver.

I don't care about elected officials because they have little interest to me, they only act on public pressure.
The Engineers have to work with what they are given, well thats their own fault as they have designed what was their previously, which was inadequate in the first place.

You still don't get it, when as in every day these roundabouts are backed up, you cannot see any road markings, with vehicles stopped over them, where a road sign would never be impeded.

I follow the rules of the road diligently and have never been in an accident (touch wood) and have no penalty points. and I am in no way an accident waiting to happen and I resent that comment.
