Cevap

Give the cyclist plenty of room and allow them to pass the junction before you exit
Rule 187 of The Highway Code states that drivers must watch out for and give plenty of room to cyclists and horse riders, who may stay in the left-hand lane and signal right to indicate that they are not leaving the roundabout. Drivers must yield sufficient room and avoid cutting across their path.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Observe the cyclist's signal and lane position on the circulatory carriageway
Identify that the cyclist is signalling right and intends to continue around the roundabout in the left-hand lane
The Highway Code Rule 187 highlights that vulnerable road users such as cyclists and horse riders may stay in the left-hand lane even when turning right
2
Assess the risk of cutting across the cyclist's path to reach your intended exit
Recognise that attempting to exit immediately would cross directly in front of the moving cyclist
Drivers must never cross the path of vulnerable road users who have priority in their lane
3
Adjust your speed, remain behind or alongside with adequate clearance, and allow the cyclist to pass
The cyclist safely clears the junction mouth before you complete your exit manoeuvre
Giving vulnerable road users extra space and time ensures safe navigation and prevents collisions
