Angry Overnight Change Of Priority

It seems there has been an overnight change of priority at mini roundabouts or at least the one at the end of my estate & we now give way to traffic from our left
I only just avoided a speeding silver Corsa this morning, it was very nearly curtains for Grovey, I cant tell you what I said due to forum rules but it rhymes with clucking trick.
I was rather amazed (expecting some young hoodlum) when I looked to see an old dear waving appologetically
Thing is how could she not see my car it's luminous orange & has it's lights on permanently

Very true but this was at 10 to 8 this morning

Mentioning street lights it actually switches one off on the Barrington Road but only since I did the HID upgrade, might have them set a bit high
