Some bus drivers are interesting, they don't even bother even with
a right hand turn, drive right over it.
I don't think anything moron about it.
Coming to the conclusion that correct use of indicators
is all that is required for small 'burban 'bouts. Just
paint a picture of a 'bout on the road with arrows, that is
all that is needed. I think it will speed up things, and
be less of a PITA for larger vehicles.
