I made that very mistake 2 years ago, when “traffic-calming circles” were installed on a 2000 Vehicle Per Hour street. NOT ONE of the police vehicles I watched, (including 3 local municipalities and the RCMP) only 5 city commuter buses, and 8 civilians (3 of whom live in my house) signalled correctly while using the traffic circle.

I called the local Mounties and asked them if there was additional training available, so I didn’t need to signal properly either.

I got my first speeding ticket in 14 years a couple of months later. 500 miles away. From a Mountie. It couldn’t possibly be related. Especially since the guy who passed ME continued on his way......

America, don’t EVER EVER EVER allow a “national” police force. REALLY!

Oh yeah, this was over a 5 month period.
