Has my idea about leaving through routes but making them zigzaggy been
performed anywhere?


Green Dragon Lane in Brentford have several, with drivers alternatively
swapping the right-of-way (an area high with social housing)

And High Park Road in Kew where there's only one, but it prevents
drivers approaching the crest of a bridge at speed, as there's a tight
bend with a a lot of cars parked either side of the road (an area of
high Tudorbethan suburbanity).

My experience is that they work most of the time, but being sensible I
tend to drive before the morning peak, so don't get the worst of the
school-4x4's.
