I tend to agree with you now that I've had a further dig into this. 
Unfortunately the bug report I posted to the locus forum has not received a 
reply from last month. There is still a problem with needing to identify which 
lane of a multi lane junction you you should occupy, and modify that as junction 
layouts change. In the UK the M4 to M5 junction is being widened and I now need 
to get into lane 3 to get on the right slip road to go North rather than 2 ... 
and going through a new route a week or so back I was glad tomtom filled in that 
data :)

Once again the problem is simply one of identifying who is making the mistakes?
