My apologies, it appears my initial in-the-car guess at what was causing the
GPS to have a spaz was incorrect, sorry, I should have checked first...
This is one of the roundabouts that caused the issue when approaching from the
north on the A9:
Shortlink
Clearly it's not the issue with flares that I described, as the A9 is a dual
carriageway at that point, and the approaches are not tagged as part of the
roundabout. I wonder what could be causing this then?
The particular conversion I was using was taken from here
http://talkytoaster.info/ukmaps.htm.
Does anyone see what might be going on?
Thanks
Tom Davie
