The ridiculous signs that are too small to read while busy watching the road and traffic indicate that one should not be in the left lane if exiting the first exit. Big confusion, thus the officer probably did not want to spend otherwise valuable time tracking down and "teaching" someone the confusing/conflicting rules of TV RABs. This scenario happens at least once a day, only with two autos. If you bikers want to play on the roads built for 4000 pound killing machines, you better get used to these events. Otherwise, you can join the sane bikers on the MMPs and residential streets.
The movement of vehicles in a roundabout is dictated by the lane they are in when entering the RAB, not the lines on the road. What you are suggesting is the same as making a right turn from the left lane at a regular intersection.
