Turning corners in the UK

Is it just me, or do driving lessons now instruct people to turn every corner as if the were driving a bus or articulated lorry?  It used to be OK to approach a roundabout and assess whether someone entering was going to carry on or turn off from their positioning, even if no indicators were operating (shock).  Nowadays, an enormous number of people start to turn in the opposite direction to that required, so their imaginary bus won't mount invisible obstacles.
