Roundabouts are currently the bane of my driving learning experience But I've watch the last couple of videos and I'm getting it little by little! Tommorrow is my last lesson before my test Scared but not as much x My instructor says I'm a good driver Just need to have more confidence and relax and I'll nail that mess!❤❤
Thanks so much for this video! Roundabouts are the last thing I need to really nail before my test in April, and I find them really intimidating. In theory I know what to do, but when I'm actually looking for gaps it's like I forget all the hints I'm supposed to be looking for 🤦
When multiple lane roundabouts are very busy I seem to lose track of what lane I need to carry on in, trying not to crash at the same time as the other vehicles can get too close!
The key to roundabouts from my own experiences as a learner is to SLOW down as much as possible when coming to one. So it gives you enough time to look at the roundabout and to choose the gear needed. For example, slow down to 5-10 mph if there are cars coming select 1st gear and stop and 2nd gear if there is a break! Hope this helps. Slowing down as much as possible is key!
My problem is WHEN to slow down , I can't judge properly and end up doing it too late and harsh or doing it too early and making cars behind me slow down , any tips to find a middle ground
Your videos are amazing I can finally reverse park and parallel park. I still find roundabouts daunting as I always find it hard to anticipate where the cars are going. This video is so well made, I really love the slow playbacks as well and the clear and straightforward explanations.
@@itsshow710 always slow on approaching so you have time to pick the right gear. If the roundabout is busy choose 1st gear and if it's not pick 2nd and carry on. But slow down so you can decide whether the roundabout is busy or not to pick the gears.
Something they could've mentioned is the problem with moving off when stopped behind another car, for instance sometimes the car in front starts to move off and you might start following it, but then it stops suddenly with you either hitting it or having to break harshly instead of having made sure the car in front of you actually does move off, with you making your own observations before moving off as well.
Just passed with Zero faults... this video and your other roundabout videos were very nice homework. Trick to get past nerves... just see it like your taking the examiner out for a spin and treat it like any other lesson, and the occasion won’t get to you.
A very useful video. The direction of the wheels and position of the car is often a better indication the the indicators. Also try to see where the driver is looking. Be in the right place at the right time in the right gear at the right speed. Prepare to stop and look to go.
Hi, I'm really struggling with my clutch control at roundabouts when I have to stop at the give way line and quickly speed up to drive off, I end up going too slow or stalling, do you have any helpful videos for this for roundabouts? Thanks :)
+jihane ben I exited into the right lane (on roundabout 4) as I was planning to turn right at the next roundabout only 100 metres along the road. Usually I'd exit on the left lane of course!
My instructor told me if I entered the roundabout using the right lane, then I should exit right as well. Here it is, some times, difficult as we should be careful if there are cars on left lane will continue to the front of us.
Many thanks for your tips and advice. I would like to see a video with a slow play about roundabout signs to help understand the roundabout layout before approaching the roundabout so that it will give us enough time to plan ahead. Thanks in advance
When entering the roundabout do we only look at the on coming traffic towards us or leaving because I get so confused on which Cars to look at? I either look at the on coming traffic or the traffic that’s entering from the other side
Note: The black Volvo could've stopped at any point between 2:08 and 2:14, likely resulting in you rear ending them. Alternatively the traffic on the roundabout is stationary and somebody looking rightwards doesn't notice. _I would imagine_ the driver could actually see it, but the view in the video might suggest to people that you don't need to look forward at all. Fun fact: I landed on this video because someone indicating left (and appeared to be pulling off) actually stayed on the roundabout. Fortunately they didn't hit me, but it would have been my fault. I apparently rely too much on signaling, so I was after any more tips I could get. Happy driving everybody!
+Irulethevidworld Yes you're right, the Volvo wasn't shown on camera but I could see them with my eyes of course - it's tricky to film exactly what I'm looking at but thanks for the comment!
Irulethevidworld Similar thing happened to me last week, but no indicators were involved. Coming up to a roundabout with no marked lanes, I could see a taxi coming round wasn't signalling right and was positioned well to the left side of the roundabout, so naturally I assumed he was coming off at the exit to the right of me. But instead he decided to come round and almost hit me side-on. I think he must've been intending to exit where I thought he would, but decided at the last minute to come right round. He didn't beep or flash so I'm guessing he also realised he'd been misleading. My friend (a more experienced driver) and I both agreed that, from his positioning, it definitely looked as if he was coming off. My point is, whilst someone's positioning on a roundabout is a clue as to where they will exit, it is but that: a CLUE. Like indicators and speed, you can't rely on that alone to know where someone's coming off. And that's where I think the uk driving test is flawed: the only way to know for sure is when the other driver has fully committed and reached the point of no return, by which point you'd probably have failed for undue hesitation. But personally I'd rather be a little hesitant than too trusting of other drivers!
Hi, I don't understand whether I am missing an opportunity in this scenario. Sometimes when you are waiting at a roundabout and the oncoming car (which is the blocker) is turning left on the outside lane to leave, there is a car coming closely behind him quickly on the inside lane. How do you know it is safe to go when you can't see the fast car? I don't want to make the fast car brake obviously because that would be a fail, but I also don't want to miss a potential opportunity. So in the case of two cars being closely behind each other, do I need to check if both cars are leaving on the outside lane to know it is safe?
If there is a car coming towards us in the inside lane then we should wait. There no no need to take chances when joining a roundabout. There will always be a safe gap eventually 👍🏼
@@AdvanceDrivingSchool Ok because sometimes there is a small gap to go when the blocker leaves even with a car in the inside lane, so I should check both lanes are clear when moving off 👍
Me to, I don’t know why but recently in a driving lesson I had a few mess ups with busy roundabouts and now I’m kind of really anxious about going on them next time.
These videos are very very helpful. Passed my test with one minor today. I watched most of your videos and learnt a lot from it. Thank you for doing this.
I live in the south, and none of these roundabouts are even close to the one close to my home. I drove for the first time alone today and I'm avoiding it because I tried it, and it didn't go well 3 times. I've only put pass plates on my car because of it. I struggle with roundabouts so much.
I couldn't see the indicator of the red car signalling to turn off. I would have probably panicked here and waited. I'll probably never pass my test *sighs*
I assume you wouldn’t go, but what would the scenario be if there were two cars, one in the left lane going straight on, and one in the right lane turning right? The car in the left lane would obviously block the cars on the immediate right because it is going straight on in front of them, but there would still be the car turning right, and I assume you shouldn’t go then? Do you only go when a car from the right lane leaves to go left into your road? Or is it okay to go when a car going straight on goes into your road?
We can only enter the roundabout when we can do so without getting in the way of anyone already on the roundabout. Usually it’s safest to wait until both lanes are clear.
As Canadian I bought P plates because in Canada people would be extra nice to you and patient if they saw these. I'm beginning to realise I shouldn't put them on here...😶
If you are little bit Hill then if vehicle in roundabout better wait in handbreak as clutch & break and then foot movement from break to gas take cause car stall . Take more time no harm as more safe but lot of drving instructor snd examinor are fool
We didn’t touch the kerb, but if you do that on your test keep driving anyway as it might be marked as a driving (minor) or serious fault, depending on how bad it was.
And if we enter right side lane then we need to indicate right until reachout our exit?and if we enter left side lane then we don't don't need to indicate indicator until we reach our exit?
The roundabout doesn’t have to be empty, we can enter as long as we don’t get in anyone’s way. The grey car was turning towards us - but there was ample time to go before he got too close.
Hi I watch videos constantly thanks for this nice and helpful content.my question is what is the difference between right lane and left lane when we enter the roundabout.
the issue I have with roudabouts is here in the US (Phx AZ) to be specific people are extremely inconsiderate and will push there way in where they definitely shouldn't or they will drive thru the roundabout at such a high rate of speed that you can not judge whats happening, you might have a good open gap but then someone will come barreling around at 50 miles an hour and lay on there horn flip you off as soon as you begin to enter or after you have entered suddenly someone will be right on you tail freaking out because they had to slow down from excessive rate of speed. seesm like roundabout speed ought to be a bit less than the road feeding in to it, so if you are going 45 down the road and get to a roundabout you should reduce to something like 25 at most for the sake of safety and just being considerate of others.I gcant figure out if its just me or if it is just rude /bad drivers. but I often have to wait a while then cant get up to speed fast enough to avoid making someone coming round from the other side having to slow down, I am usually pulling a large trailer and not whipping around in a tiny car.
It sounds that the other drivers you describe are driving aggressively, and it's not actually the fault of the roundabout. At least the design of a roundabout forces drivers to slow down as they steer around the junction, and even if there is a collision it is usually at an angle that reduces the collision forces. Imagine how bad it would be if those aggressive drivers hit you on an intersection - the crash would be far worse. In an ideal world they should show some consideration to drivers of large or slow vehicles, but we all know that this won't always happen...
(Matt Owens Rees) Excellent video but on a few occasions, you kept the right indicator on after you passed the exit immediately prior to the one you exited. That gives the wrong information to following vehicles
Any tips for not hitting the kerb when driving round the roundabout? Mini or busy roundabout?? I get really nervous i am going to hit the kerb and i panic and worry too much on this.
We sometimes find that learners look right for too long before crossing the give way line - and end up hitting the kerb or just losing their road position. To avoid this, try looking twice quickly, instead of once for a long time.
Steering control just comes with experience - as the amount we need to steer will vary for every turn we do. Just make sure you have slowed the car down enough to give you enough time to steer carefully - as most steering faults are caused by the car speed being too high!
+Mr Droplip We look out for the same clues that another vehicle is leaving the roundabout into the road we are leaving. Watch for indicating, the positioning of the car, or even just how the front wheels are turned. It gets easier with practice!
I notice that at 1:43 you exit to the right lane (I think, from the right lane?) I thought you always had to exit from the left lane into the left lane. When do you not have to do that?
+Spandan Banerjee When turning right it is ok to leave the roundabout in either lane - as shown in the picture in The Highway Code. In this case I did it as I needed to turn right at the following roundabout as well.
The only 3-lane roundabout near us has traffic lights - so it's really easy to enter even when it's busy. If you have tricky 3-lane roundabouts near you the usual rules still apply - but keep a close eye out for road markings so you don't get caught in the wrong lane. However, if you have to take a detour, thats better than a dangerous lane change!
@@AdvanceDrivingSchool Oh right lol. I made that comment before my driving lesson knowing we were doing round abouts again and now i am back and it is weird how some round abouts are easier one way but more confusing from a diff direction.
I'm a new driver and thanks for the video. At 2:49 couldn't you have entered the second you saw that car's wheels were pointing straight? Why wasn't it safe to enter the roundabout once you saw that the silver mercedes at 2:52 was leaving the roundabout? Wouldn't it actually be unsafe to enter at 6:05 if the yellow car was actually not leaving the roundabout? But it looks like you entered before you could tell that the yellow car was leaving the roundabout. Thanks
+Khucumber I didn't go because I saw the speed of the approaching lorry and thought I might get in his way - if it's not definitely safe, it's better to wait than take a chance.
Advance Driving School wow you did some awesome driving there! You're super human processing situations like that and going. I'd have stopped for a few of those. Sometimes everyone makes a slight misjudgement in rush hour and has to step on the gas or brake to make good. I think it's all about being tolerant whilst making sure to only go when you know it's safe.
When I have P plates on and hesitate slightly and I get beeped at. Like sorry you have to wait an extra 10 seconds to get on the roundabout lad I’m sure your trip to ASDA is an emergency
It's amazing how little patience other drivers have sometimes! Thankfully most people are fine, so try not to worry when that happens.

You should exit on left lane if possible.
And don’t hit the left curb exiting the roundabout at minute 1:03 like I did … 😖
These skills, as you call them, should be "common sense" and do not need to be learned.
Isn't that counted as a major fault that you hit the roundabout kerb in 3:12??

You call that a busy roundabout? lol
Very helpful video!! Thank you!
i’m struggling with roundabout lesson at the moment
Roundabouts can be tricky! We already have 9 videos about them - and another this week 👍🏼
Thank you 🙏
Very very usefull thank you!
Any tips for not hitting the kerb when driving round the roundabout? Mini or busy roundabout?? I get really nervous i am going to hit the kerb and i panic and worry too much on this.
We sometimes find that learners look right for too long before crossing the give way line - and end up hitting the kerb or just losing their road position. To avoid this, try looking twice quickly, instead of once for a long time.
@@AdvanceDrivingSchool Twice quickly where?
Thank you for the tips 👌

thanks for this video
I never how much to steer on a roundabout or rounded bend. I might over steer.
Steering control just comes with experience - as the amount we need to steer will vary for every turn we do. Just make sure you have slowed the car down enough to give you enough time to steer carefully - as most steering faults are caused by the car speed being too high!
Please tell the indicator where we need to press

lmfao he curbs the car
No chance! 🙄

What about in busy mini roundabouts? What should you look out for to enter?
+Mr Droplip We look out for the same clues that another vehicle is leaving the roundabout into the road we are leaving. Watch for indicating, the positioning of the car, or even just how the front wheels are turned. It gets easier with practice!
Amazing
All roundabouts near me are 3 lanes wide on a ring road
Have you seen our video showing how to handle large roundabouts?

@@AdvanceDrivingSchool thanks ile have a look
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank's

Is there a program to flip the video? It's so good, but yet so backwards. :(
Backwards? I assume you live in a country that drives on the right?
Exactly! But the video still helped me a lot, thank you so much for posting it! :)
+Ma A That's ok then! 👍🏼
Thank you 😙
Here in NZ if you did that first one, the blue car would have changed their mind, and full throttled toward you last second
Your videos are excellent!
Glad you like them!
I notice that at 1:43 you exit to the right lane (I think, from the right lane?) I thought you always had to exit from the left lane into the left lane. When do you not have to do that?
+Spandan Banerjee When turning right it is ok to leave the roundabout in either lane - as shown in the picture in The Highway Code. In this case I did it as I needed to turn right at the following roundabout as well.
Why does he have indicator when entering a roundabout?
To help others understand where we are going. This video might help ruclips.net/video/e7uYp0sUq3o/видео.html 👍🏼
@@AdvanceDrivingSchool Advance Driving School Only in uk then. In my country the roundabout only goes right way 👍
Really? How does anyone know where you are going?
@@AdvanceDrivingSchool When you exit u use it raundabouth. yes same as in the video no indicator when approaching.👍
Crazy!
Cheers👍
Any on 3 lane roundabouts
The only 3-lane roundabout near us has traffic lights - so it's really easy to enter even when it's busy. If you have tricky 3-lane roundabouts near you the usual rules still apply - but keep a close eye out for road markings so you don't get caught in the wrong lane. However, if you have to take a detour, thats better than a dangerous lane change!
Did he hit the curb on the first one?
It was the rear wheel running over a drain 🙄
@@AdvanceDrivingSchool Oh right lol. I made that comment before my driving lesson knowing we were doing round abouts again and now i am back and it is weird how some round abouts are easier one way but more confusing from a diff direction.
@@AdvanceDrivingSchool Btw the video was very helpful at making me know when to go and when to wait so ty. :)
Yeah that's Easy If the people in my country wasn't driving 90 speed and never stopping when entring the roundabout 👏
I'm a new driver and thanks for the video. At 2:49 couldn't you have entered the second you saw that car's wheels were pointing straight?
Why wasn't it safe to enter the roundabout once you saw that the silver mercedes at 2:52 was leaving the roundabout?
Wouldn't it actually be unsafe to enter at 6:05 if the yellow car was actually not leaving the roundabout? But it looks like you entered before you could tell that the yellow car was leaving the roundabout.
Thanks
+Khucumber I didn't go because I saw the speed of the approaching lorry and thought I might get in his way - if it's not definitely safe, it's better to wait than take a chance.
Thanks! What about at 6:05?
+Khucumber You're right, it would have been a little tight if the yellow Mini hadn't left the roundabout. Thankfully it didn't!
Advance Driving School wow you did some awesome driving there! You're super human processing situations like that and going. I'd have stopped for a few of those. Sometimes everyone makes a slight misjudgement in rush hour and has to step on the gas or brake to make good. I think it's all about being tolerant whilst making sure to only go when you know it's safe.
Very helpfull
Yeah, that’s why my test went wrong, only it’s a spiral roundabout 🫤
