Where I'm from that would be a poor excuse if caught crossing a solid<br>
line. And wouldn't it be great if your favorite navigation software<br>
could tell you how traffic can legally flow? Even if the weather<br>
condition were such that you couldn't observe the solid line.<br>
<br>
Also I don't get how roundabouts are relevant for this discussion.<br>
