    Very effective and helpful video . I also find this roundabout confusing as there is not enough time to think and proceed . Can you please tell me when entering from ALDI side and turning right you said we shouldn’t signal as it’s a curve . Won’t it be confusing on the cars on the opposite side if they don’t know from before which lane are we going in ?

    • @JamesTravis
      @JamesTravis  3 года назад +2

      If you signal to early it could come off as you straighten up in approach to roundabout. Also because of the unusual angle of the giveway junction, you might get confused and try turning right into the oncoming traffic.

    @ 5:44 why did you pick the right hand lane as both lanes turn right? I'd have gone for the middle lane behind the red car which would have put you in the N/S lane once you'd turned right....?

    • @JamesTravis
      @JamesTravis  Год назад +1

      Yes you can go to the middle lane. But on a busy day you will get cars coming from your left who will try and get into that middle lane. So with experience I avoided the middle to be safe.

    At 5:42 where you do the right turn, is it wrong to get into the middle lane from that direction even though the middle and right both lead to the dual carriageway?

    • @JamesTravis
      @JamesTravis  3 года назад

      That’s ok, but you would need to check your left side just in case a car on your left tries to use the lane.

    As you're approaching this one are you able to take the left or right lane of either roundabout, and do they head to the same exit? If yes then what's the point in two connected roundabouts like that? Also is there one specific roundabout that you should be using over the other? Confusing

    • @JamesTravis

      @@JamesTravis at 4:08 it confuses me why you're using the right lane when your exit is the first on the roundabout? you used the right lane to join the closest roundabout, just to immediately move to the left to exit. Would joining the far side rectangular roundabout from that same right lane lead you off to that same exit? If yes then why is there a long rectangle roundabout and smaller one there like that in the first place? I appreciate your quick replies to my question:)

    • @JamesTravis
      @JamesTravis  2 года назад

      @@misstangshan95 at 4:08 the right lane goes right only. The middle and left lanes on approach go ahead which both lanes turn to the left only. So if you want to go right you need the right lane and if you want to go ahead(which is to the left), then use the other lanes.

    • @misstangshan95
      @misstangshan95 2 года назад

      @@JamesTravis its when you say goes right only, with this specific roundabout, it looks like you're leaving at the first exit, so how can that be a right exit? Why would that not be a left lane/exit? Or is it that going to join the other roundabout IS the first and second exit? I should probably just simplify it by counting the lanes and see where they take me as opposed to getting confused in which kind of road (in this case a roundabout) is approaching and the specific rules applied to each. Would you agree?

    • @JamesTravis
      @JamesTravis  2 года назад +1

      @@misstangshan95 think of it like this. At the roundabout in question you can either go right or left not ahead. So right lane takes the second exit and goes right and the middle and left lanes take the first exit left.

    • @JamesTravis
      @JamesTravis  4 года назад +2

      This roundabout has a dual lane and is small and sharpe bends and is usually very busy, last thing you would want to do is change lanes until you get off. But on a standard size roundabout you would be expecting to exit into the left if possible.

      If you have got your own car, depending on your own level of competence and confidence I should look at current "support bubble" regulations in relation to private practice. It might be possible to legally incorporate a full licence holder living alone locally or single parent living only with under eighteens into your bubble arrangement. If you are seventeen there may be other angles. At least you can keep the skill level up and get around a bit too. I remember years ago my mother a full licence holder, passed and initially had the red book licence went onto green one until you are seventy style had given up driving for thirty years and could not drive at all after this gap but was qualified to sit and supervise learners because she still had a valid full licence!
