Highway Code for Roundabouts

If you are learning to drive and have any questions, be sure to note them down and ask your driving instructor next time you have a lesson.

We have a new crazy on the south east , its turning right from the left hand lane. It happens so often i thought the rules had been changed . Does it happen where you live ?

On duel carriageway it's really dangerous as you can go straight on in both as long as you leave the roundabout on the lane you enter. Outside lane to outside lane etc. Saw two cars in front of do this yesterday the car on the outside lane went to leave onto the outside lane only for the car on his left to come straight across in front of. The both crashed onto each other. The car from the left lane was going all the way round the roundabout to turn right. He was adamant he was in the right.

I am sure unless signposted the first two junctions use the outside/left haned. Any thing past 12 o'clock or passed the second second turning use the inside of the roundabout.

I only travel about 20 miles aday and see people turn right from the outside lane at least 8 or 9 times a day. It's been on the increase the last 2 or 3 years

In the north we have big fuck off arrows painted on the roads.

Same in all of Europe. We are very lucky that there are actual regulations and norms in UK, just an undercurrent of selfish and/or overaggressive twats that ruin it.

I would rather drive anywhere in Europe (apart from Prague) than on UK roads.

The roads are quieter in Europe, the only positive I could personally give. I agree with Prague, full of nutters in sports cars. I nearly got run over once over there, some prick in a Lambo driving about 80mph down a back street.

Belgium and Italy included?


Absolute nutters everywhere.

That almost sounds romantic with the olive groves.

Not when you see then sitting on white plastic chairs with their legs wide open on the hard shoulder....

Roundabouts always remind me of @Bigg Bigg Blue going to the bar.
He heads for the bar, turns left before going round in a huge circle and before you know it he is back with us but alas no drinks.

I used to like driving years ago.
Now I hate it.

Every family now seems to have 3 or 4 cars. It's beyond mental.
