It turns out this self-appointed enforcer of rules that don't exist is actually an orthopedic surgeon. He accused us of blowing through a give way sign coming into the roundabout. The sign is actually a roundabout sign, and vehicles entering the roundabout (Mr Surgeon) must give way to traffic already in the roundabout (us). This meant we had done nothing wrong.

The bluster and arrogance, and jibes about lycra were replaced with an apology when the police called him. Issued with a ~AUD350 fine and 2 demerit points on his licence.
