    This is in relation to the junction/odd roundabout beside kilmainham on the N4 in Dublin.

    I don't tend to be in this part of Dublin much and don't know it that well, but as far as I can remember the last time I was in this area going from conyngham rd to the N4 out of dublin, I took the route on the first picture.

    Anyway I am going to a few area's I don't know that well and looked through them on AA route planner and one of them brought me through that same area and I noticed it said to turn straight on to the N4 instead of going the way in the first pic, image below shows the way it said.

    So my question is, did my satnav indicate the wrong route when I was last on this junction or is the route planner wrong?

    Second pic is wrong, you cannot turn at that junction, it straight through only.

    Correct, see Google Street View here.

    Thanks guys, never thought to streetview it.
    I was thinking I wouldn't have made a mistake like that, begs the question why both the AA planner and Google (I checked it) are showing the second pic as the route to take:confused:

    Automated systems can sometimes make mistakes if they are programmed to!
