Ey up.

Thought I'd post this here as I'm guessing some of you have had experience of this roundabout;

Your thoughts please?

Oh and James has kindly pointed out that there is actually hatching on the left lane to stop you moving into it on the 'north' exit.

can i just check i understand this right?

you were going straight over the roundabout south to north in the left-hand lane?

the learner was coming from the east and turning left to exit north, the same as you?

and you say the learner never moved to the right while exiting the roundabout?

Looks like you're right.

Like someone said on the other thread seeing the learner on the roundabout coming from the DC and turning right into towards Freshbrook you could probably have anticipated where they were going etc

When I'm coming from motorway and turning north I always slow down there, I don't trust people not to come off the roundabout and cut straight into that left hand lane.
