More traffic which is actually going to Chiswick is keeping to the left
lane; then forking right at the lights after the bridge and squeezing into
their proper lane later. This is now common and obviously upsetting more
law-abiding drivers, whereas it was rare before.

There is nothing to say you can't cross and it gets you there faster. There
is a system in Aylesbury (Gyratory System) where I always stay in the Right
hand lane and change over by the Pub when going to Southcourt because it's
faster.
