Our "priorite de droite/voorrang van rechts" has no translation in english as no anglo-saxon country knows the concept ;-) The closest ex-pats come in translating is just literally... believe me, I live with one @Beate I do find the whole thing indeed a bit sad for Yanina, she should dump her manager and her father (as sport advisor) as they clearly haven't helped her career! @Charlo

Being 19 years old, I can somehow believe this. (FYI: she missed first half of 2009 on filling in about the whereabouts) Yet that her father and her trainer were ignorant as well, is difficult to believe. I also find it hard to believe that while trying to use the system, and try to get the login for it, nobody has warned her about the severe consequences.

Whereabouts are part of a sporter's life. Do they 'forget' training, eating or sleeping... And most of all they are surrounded by a professional entourage (or should I doubt about that?).

And if other big athletic stars can adhere, why not they? Btw, "priority from the right" should be "right of way". i think. You have a great point there, the whole system isn’t that new.

Btw, “priority from the right” should be “right of way”. i think.
