Roundabouts and you

[notb665]

Can you tell me why you take this route when going straight on at a roundabout, especially when there are other cars on the roundabout?



And look! Here you are again - why do you stick out at your junction and make me swerve slightly, then give me a funny look?

because you are on a motorcycle and we want to kill you?

 

[ellal]

Because you are..

[ellal]

Because he is Jeremy Clarkson...

its not me i dont drive a red car

I visit a PO often. I have to pull out of the side road & turn right. Immediately to my left are traffic lights. Immediately in front of me are large KEEP CLEAR boxes. So why, when the lights are on red, do folk come screaming right up to the red lights & block the keep clear boxes?

Surely a little thinking ahead and they could see that they are going nowhere (lights on red, remember?) and lose absolutely nothing by letting me exit the junction?

if they are travelling straight ahead its because they sre numpties who dont know or care about the highway code and are also probably trying to stop anyone 'stealing' that space on the box-junction.

if they are waiting to turn right they have every right to be there.

Here's a question?

Following the yellow road from top to bottom. 2 Lanes and entry to roundabout 1 lane on exit. Which lane should you be in when entering the roundabout?

 

[Diyisfun]

Dosnt the hwc say either lane if going straight.

 

[luke_vibert_uk]

it does unless road markings indicate otherwise...

Either way on exit.... "Merge in turn"
