Teesside Park shopping centre is another one. You get to a roundabout, then all the cars are directed left or right depending on which car park you want to go in. The cars go along directly in front of the shops with millions of zebra crossings between the car park and the shops.

You have to leave on the central car park road, but that ends up all backed up as a large number of the cars turning into the right car park seem unable to understand the yellow box markings on the roundabout.
