Zorluk: OrtaRoundabouts

Road surface arrows on the approach to a roundabout indicate that the left-hand lane is reserved exclusively for left-turning traffic. You intend to travel straight ahead. How should you position your vehicle on approach?

  1. A
    Use the left-hand lane because default rules dictate keeping left when going straight ahead
  2. B
    Move into the left-hand lane just before the give way line without checking your nearside blind spot
  3. Follow the designated road markings and approach in the lane indicated for straight-ahead trafficCevap
  4. D
    Flash your headlights to signal to left-lane drivers that you are continuing straight ahead from their lane

Cevap

Follow the designated road markings and approach in the lane indicated for straight-ahead traffic
According to The Highway Code (Rule 186), when road markings or direction signs designate specific lanes for particular routes, drivers must follow these indications rather than standard default positioning. Because the left lane is dedicated exclusively to left turns, drivers going straight ahead must select the appropriate lane marked for their intended route.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Scan advance direction signs and road surface markings well before reaching the junction.
Identified that the left-hand lane is exclusively dedicated to left turns, overriding default lane choice.
Highway Code Rule 186 specifies that specific lane markings and directional arrows take precedence over general roundabout rules.
2
Check mirrors, signal if a lane change is needed early, and select the lane marked for straight-ahead traffic.
The vehicle is positioned in the correct lane in good time.
Proper lane positioning prevents last-minute lane hopping and reduces collision risks at the junction entry.
3
Maintain lane discipline into and across the circulatory carriageway until reaching the intended exit.
Smooth, predictable progress through the roundabout.
Staying within marked lanes avoids cutting across adjacent paths and maintains safety.
