Dear Open Street map Routing list.

When using Open Street Map to navigate I have noticed recently that some
roundabouts expect me to travel in the incorrect direction around them. It
would seem that it defaults round abouts to 'driving in a CLOCKwise
direction' (driving on the left side of the road, ala UK, Australia, Japan
... exits are turning left).

This needs to also be compared to other locations where they drive on the
right hand side and hence use round abouts in an 'anti clockwise' direction
(exits are turning right)

It seems to occur only on the round abouts on the 'minor roads'. So this
could be a local problem with these roundabout being 'new' and being
entered in under the incorrect type.

I use OSMand on my Apple Iphone

Versions :
iOS 12.3.1
OSMand : 3.0 (Not sure how to update the free version ? Checked the OSMand
site and it seems that the iOS version is not updated as regularly as the
android version ~ why and I not surprised :( )

The problem can be seen whilst navigating between the following points.

>From : 25.12662 N   55.40228 E
To :     25.21895 N,   55.42896 E

I have only noticed this error recently, I don't know if the map details
are updated more regularly than the underlying application.

I don't know if this is an issue with the routing as done by OSMand or if
it is an error in the underlying routing library, or map data. Or may even
be a problem since my most recent update of iOS.

If I can do anything else to assist in this please ask, I will do what I
can.

Thanks for a brilliant mapping solution.

David
