It is also legal to pass on the left if; you are in a 1 way system e.g a roundabout, & if the vehicle is turning right

People who go straight over roundabouts and be damned if anyone else is going to use the pre determined lanes! (e.g. turning a two lane roundabout into a one lane straight piece of road).
