Zorluk: OrtaRoundabouts

When approaching a standard roundabout to take an intermediate exit straight ahead where no road markings dictate otherwise, a driver should not signal on approach, but must signal left after passing the exit immediately prior to their intended exit.

Cevap: Cevap

Cevap

True
Rule 186 of The Highway Code clearly specifies that when taking an intermediate exit without specific lane markings, drivers should approach in the appropriate lane without signalling, and only indicate left once they have passed the exit immediately before the one they wish to take.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the intended route and exit category at the roundabout.
The manoeuvre is an intermediate exit (straight ahead) without overriding road markings.
Highway Code signalling requirements depend on whether the exit is first/left, intermediate (straight ahead), or right/full circle.
2
Determine the required approach signalling according to Rule 186.
No signal is applied on approach.
Applying a left or right indicator on approach when travelling straight ahead causes confusion and misleads oncoming or waiting traffic.
3
Determine the correct exit signalling point.
Signal left after passing the exit immediately prior to the desired exit.
Indicating left at this specific juncture informs following traffic and vehicles waiting at subsequent entry points of the intention to leave the circulatory carriageway.
