You are correct. There is nothing left to say. These people who get in the right lane and go 3/4 of the way around the traffic circle are turning left from the right lane. They are a menace. I just don't get how people think its okay to do that. What rationale can they possibly have? In any event, I think the only way to stop such stupidity is a police presence at some of the worst roundabouts. Buena Vista and Camino Real comes to mind. Getting a ticket is something they might be able to grasp.
