Things that make you a cunt if you are from Cork

You’re supposed to go into the fast lane.

Some of those merging junctions are very sharp. Patrickswell and the Tulla one at Ennis spring to mind.

Thanks pal, didn’t know that :roll_eyes:

That’s not 100% correct. You’re obliged to let them onto the motorway whether that be in the form of slowing down to let them in or moving to the fast lane

You’re right of course.

I don’t drive the motorways much now but I’ve never experienced anything like the merging traffic on the motorways over in England.*

*Probably one for the motorway driving thread.

If you don’t hit it fast over there, you’re fucked.

Penalties for it aren’t anywhere near dissuasive. Should be an automatic ban and have to resit test

Pray it doesn’t seep through the seat covers

Is the problem that everyone knows that the lights allow a second or two before going green for the waiting cars ?

Nope it’s the big red flashing lights that start just before the barrier comes down for an on coming train

Oops ! I missed ‘ level’ before junction

Merrion Gates?

Why don’t we have the system in the north where they get a yellow light before the green?

Yep

Crazy the driving there.

I wouldn’t have even known that as the name of the place, but would have guessed the junction in question from driving through it a few times before. Only asking for trouble with the layout there.
