    I knew a girl who was instructed to turn left at a roundabout, so she proceeded to turn left when merging into the roundabout.

    Poor girl, fortunately everything was fine (she did fail, but no accidents) but that’s a special kind of ‘too literal’ that loops back around to being dumb.

      And that’s why turn-by-turn navigation systems phrase it as “take the third exit from the roundabout” these days.
