Today we had some under 55-year-old jackwagon in a white mercedes convertible pass us on the right in the roundabout, swerve in front of us into our inside lane, then move back to the right to exit. He saw an opening in the visitors lane, swerved again (already had pulled into the residents exit) into the visitors exit just to get ahead of one darn car.

"Yielding" vs "Having" the right of way

If markings allow the change of lanes, it is permitted! I discussed this at a Welcome Wednesday day last year to present my opinion that these markings are confusing. Nevertheless, it is legal at this exit to change lanes by following my red markings to arrive at the right gate. Note that the outside/right lane must continue through and not turn left into Hillsborough. Most people do not do it correctly.

Just because the line is broken, DOES NOT mean that you can change lanes within the roudabout. Edited to add: I agree with some of the other posters, the gate that says "Visitors" should say "Visitors AND Residents" I think that is why so many people change lanes within the roundabout.

You know how to navigate a 2 lane roundabout, the same way you navigate a 2 lane 4-way stop. Turning right you use the right lane. Going straight you use either the right or left lane. Making a left turn you use the left lane (inside lane). Going around the outside lane very slowly does not make you safe, it makes you a candidate for a T-Bone by the driver in the inside lane leaving at the second exit. You know, this stuff is all on the signs just before each roundabout. Look at the sign and you see two lines, they will show you what the right lane can do and what the left can do.
Just make believe the lanes are straight and not curved. |
