Junctions with weird priority rules
Some junctions have very strange rules when it comes to who has right of way, here are some strange ones that I know of:
Crossroads with 3 give way lines: https://www.google.com/maps/@51.4105276 ... 384!8i8192
Unneeded give way sign: https://www.google.com/maps/@51.4573004 ... 384!8i8192
A staggered crossroads without separate phases: https://www.google.com/maps/@51.421907, ... 384!8i8192
Another staggered crossroads, traffic turning right here gives way to the left: https://www.google.com/maps/@51.4540816 ... 384!8i8192
Share some of your ones, and I have seen a double stop on another thread but couldn't remember where it was.

The last one look reasonable, the car has priority over the scooter I think.Skipsy wrote: ↑Wed Apr 28, 2021 19:26 Some junctions have very strange rules when it comes to who has right of way, here are some strange ones that I know of:

Re: Junctions with weird priority rules
There's some near me where three of the four approaches to a junction have give way lines.

This one in a northwest suburb of Birmingham has two give ways on the roundabout.

How would you like your grade separations, Sir?

Similar to your second example, however in this situation it is needed
https://www.google.co.uk/maps/@53.01825 ... 312!8i6656 - surely a miniroundabout would fix this
https://www.google.co.uk/maps/@50.98930 ... 312!8i6656 - The side road going across here actually has priority (sign facing the wrong way), on the approach it has signs for "give way 25 yds". Although the "road" going across is basically a path / driveway

Re: Junctions with weird priority rules
My favourite one of these is the end of the A44 in Rhyader, with two Give Ways, a Stop line, and a clock tower that's just sort of in the way.

ARGH! Those right-turn arrows almost tell you to turn into the give-way exits.Truvelo wrote: ↑Wed Apr 28, 2021 19:49 This one in a northwest suburb of Birmingham has two give ways on the roundabout.

Re: Junctions with weird priority rules
Little Hadham, Herts is being discussed on another thread.
This one in the centre has a signal onto the lengthy S1 main road through there, immediately followed by Give Way markings

Re: Junctions with weird priority rules
That last one is in Wolverhampton not Birmingham. I use often, it works quite well!Truvelo wrote: ↑Wed Apr 28, 2021 19:49 There's some near me where three of the four approaches to a junction have give way lines.

Yeah, Truvelo knows that, he's just gently fishing for a reaction, like a true Brummie!IanDeeCee1966 wrote: ↑Tue May 04, 2021 07:48That last one is in Wolverhampton not Birmingham.

Re: Junctions with weird priority rules
Good one in Caversham, near Reading on this crossroads, which has two stop lines and two give way lines.
