You are driving on a dual carriageway and plan to travel straight ahead (taking the second exit) at a standard multi-lane roundabout where lane markings do not designate specific lanes. In what chronological sequence should you carry out these driving actions from approach through to exiting?

  1. 1Check mirrors, select the appropriate left-hand lane on approach, and adjust your speed without applying a direction indicator.
  2. 2Assess oncoming traffic from your offside (right), give way at the broken line, and enter the circulatory carriageway when a safe gap appears.
  3. 3Keep to your chosen lane on the circulatory carriageway without signalling as you drive past the first exit.
  4. 4Check the interior and nearside (left) door mirrors, then apply the left indicator immediately after passing the first exit.
  5. 5Leave the circulatory carriageway into the appropriate lane, check blind spots for vulnerable road users, and cancel the signal.

Cevap

The correct sequence is: (1) Check mirrors, select the left-hand lane on approach and adjust speed without signalling, (2) Give way to traffic from the right and enter when safe, (3) Maintain lane position without signalling past the first exit, (4) Check interior and nearside mirrors and indicate left after passing the first exit, (5) Leave the roundabout into the appropriate lane, check blind spots, and cancel the indicator.
According to Highway Code Rule 186 for intermediate exits (such as going straight ahead at the second exit), you should approach in the left-hand lane without signalling on approach. You must yield priority to traffic approaching from your right at the give way line. While on the circulatory carriageway, stay in your lane until you have passed the exit immediately prior to your intended exit. At that point, conduct mirror checks (focusing on the interior and nearside mirrors) and signal left to leave the roundabout safely.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Prepare and position on approach
Vehicle approaches in the left-hand lane at an appropriate speed without misleading indicator signals.
Under Highway Code Rule 186, when taking an intermediate exit (straight ahead), drivers should approach in the left lane unless signs or markings indicate otherwise, and avoid signalling on approach to prevent confusing other road users.
2
Give way and join the circulatory carriageway
Vehicle enters the roundabout smoothly when priority traffic from the offside allows.
Highway Code Rule 185 dictates that drivers must give way to traffic approaching from the right at the give way line unless signs, road markings, or traffic lights direct otherwise.
3
Maintain lane discipline past preceding exits
Vehicle tracks steadily in the outer lane without an active indicator.
Maintaining lane discipline without an active signal prevents vehicles on earlier exits or following behind from misinterpreting your intended path.
4
Execute mirror checks and signal for exit
Nearside observations confirm no cyclists or motorcyclists are overtaking on the left, and the left indicator alerts road users of your intention to leave.
Highway Code Rule 186 requires checking mirrors and signalling left after passing the exit immediately preceding the one you wish to take.
5
Exit the roundabout and complete post-manoeuvre routine
Vehicle exits safely into the new road and indicators are cancelled.
Ensures the manoeuvre is completed safely, blind spots are monitored for vulnerable road users, and trailing drivers are not misled by an ongoing indicator signal.
