  1. A
    Rely solely on your interior mirror and move across promptly before entering vehicles can join
  2. Check your nearside mirror, check your left blind spot, signal clearly, and move only when there is a safe gapCevap
  3. C
    Flash your headlights to instruct drivers in the left lane to yield and let you merge
  4. D
    Steer across immediately without signalling, relying on your right-of-way over circulating traffic

Cevap

Check your nearside mirror, check your left blind spot, signal clearly, and move only when there is a safe gap.
When changing lanes on a multi-lane roundabout or moving across to exit, Highway Code Rules 186 and 187 require drivers to apply the Mirrors-Signal-Manoeuvre routine. Drivers must check their mirrors, look into their blind spots to ensure cyclists or smaller vehicles are not alongside, give a timely left signal, and move across only when a safe gap exists.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Assess surroundings and check mirrors
Awareness of the speed and position of vehicles behind and in adjacent lanes
Highway Code Rule 187 requires full awareness of traffic crossing in front or changing lanes around you.
2
Perform a physical blind spot check over the left shoulder
Verification that no cyclist, motorcyclist, or vehicle is hidden in the nearside blind area
Mirrors alone do not show vehicles travelling immediately alongside your rear quarter.
3
Signal your intention to exit or move left and complete the lane change when safe
Clear communication to other road users and a smooth, collision-free lane transition
Rule 186 states you should signal left after passing the exit prior to the one you intend to take.

Anahtar Kavram
