- In todays video we are driving on mini roundabouts. To be more precise we will be working on double mini roundabouts from different directions.
We will be driving on the mini roundabout to go ahead on both mini roundabouts. We will be driving on the mini roundabouts to go right then left. We will be driving on mini roundabouts to go right then ahead.

How to drive on 3 lane roundabouts

Hi, I happily managed to pass today and your approach to roundabout videos helped me massively thank you!
Great to hear! Congratulations 🎉
Thank you, on the test route by me there’s a double mini roundabout (Wall Heath, West Midlands) and it confuses everyone. Instructors cover it a lot on lessons and I got it on my test (just a left turn on first one) Me and the examiner were discussing it and apparently quite a few fail on those roundabouts. My understanding of them is to treat both as individual and expect the unexpected as nobody seems to understand them!
Yes treat them as separate ones and expect
Hi Travis,
Thank you for the videos they’re super helpful. When you’re changing lanes say you’ve gone straight on the first roundabout and straight on the second. When you’re coming off the first would signal left to come off the roundabout or signal right to change lane, or both one after the other?
Thanks
Signal right to change lanes, then cancel signal
2:01 At the second mini-roundabout (which has no lane markings) we can see an exit to the left and one ahead. Logically the left lane is for left turn and the right hand lane has to be for straight ahead. If there were no lane markings whatsoever the same logic would apply. If you erroneously thought the left lane was for straight ahead, why would there be a right lane?
"Logical" as you say and for decades those two lanes were clearly marked for use as you describe. Unfortunately with no road markings, some drivers will now use it to proceed ahead.
Hi Travis, Would you be able to do the double roundabout near the hospital, please?
Thank you.
Ok
Hello James,
thank you for your video. Can I just ask please, when you’re going straight ahead at the second one, could you use the left hand lane if there were two lanes on approach and also the option to turn right? Obviously with no road markings/signs. Am I allowed to use the left hand lane to go left and straight ahead in this case?
Thank you
Andreas
If on the approach to the second mini roundabout it shows white arrows that state right to turn right, then use left to go ahead.
@@JamesTravis Thank you, but I meant if there are no white arrows/ no markings at all, no signs but still two lanes on approach, what is the rule that applies here? Sorry about that I’d just really like to understand that as it can get really confusing sometimes.
2:06 By continuing because you are not going to cause the learner to change course or speed because of your actions. I contend you did give way to the learner.
Cheers James . However There's quite simply no reason at all to have 2 lanes on approach, and on mini roundabouts. It just confuses... Seems a UK thing,
You are spot on, just makes things more complicated
Is it possible to do a video on when to overtake cyclists? I am never sure when is the right moment to go - last time I did it a police car came out of nowhere towards me at high speed so since I had started the overtake I had to speed up, keeping wide of the cyclist, then pull in when safe. Everything was fine but I was quite shaken up afterwards, but since the police car wasn't there when I started I couldn't have predicted it.
It is hard to record a video on such a thing because you cannot pre plan it to happen. But next time I overtake a cyclist I will save footage.
For overtaking a cyclist what you want to say to yourself is would I overtake a car at this moment in time. If the answer is no , just wait for a safe place to overtake also don't be frightened to accelerate to get past quickly
To be honest describing anything as "coming out of nowhere" is often made on insurance claims. It tends to imply one has failed to observe the existence of something prior to it becoming critical. It is far better to say "suddenly turned out in front of me" or "approached at more than twice the speed limit". This is unlikely to be the case from regular drivers.
