"MFR return journey !"
Driving in Sydney is particularly difficult because of urban road laws and design.

What to see in this at the start is the traffic lights change fast from green to yellow on a multi lane road (multi lane from any direction). Pulling up behind the lead car on such intersections , the lead car only reaches the opposite side when lights become yellow then red , a car behind will cross the opposite side with traffick lights red !
In the journey the road I came from and go to can only be re accessed by a round trip of 2km, it's impossible to get back into the road without travelling a long city distance I. a loop.
Unlike other countries, Sydney roads bend and wind around with intersection road joints sometimes being offset causing difficulty of finding the correct lane channel across the other side of an intersection.
Near the end of the video I make a U turn around 1 km from where I want to go and is as short as can be done.
What has to then be done is access the road from a multi lane 60kmh limit road with a cherry on top of left turn past the crest of a bridge to a 40 kmh local road that has a pedestrian crossing straight over the road blind ten metres back from the entrance corner !
Around 200 metres from where I do the U turn, there is a crooked traffick light intersection where you cannot go straight ahead but deviate across the intersection at an angle and almost left turn into the opposite side, another road 500 meters from there has a stop sign and pedestrian crossing immediately in front of it and immediately in front of the pedestrian crossing is a T intersection !
