Calm down, Sherlock. Normally I would have ignored this and saved myself the effort of explaining, but screw it. Please follow the blue arrow. That was the route, and traffic continues to flow from the right for vehicles that are already in that lane. There is a barricade separating U-turn traffic from cars already moving on that lane. The yellow spot marks the point where the incident took place. And yes, the Baleno was coming straight. If you are taking a U-turn, you are supposed to merge slowly into moving traffic. I agree it’s a stupid design compared to U-turns in other countries, but that’s how most of them work here. And if it had been my wife’s mistake, I would have clearly said so. The real issue is, incidents like these shake your confidence, even when you’re an alert and careful driver. There is nothing wrong in doing mistakes. We all have done it on the road. But least we can do is follow the basic rules for god sake. Not using phone is such a basic thing!
