why are they going the wrong way?
Roundabouts with two lanes ARE confusing as fuck.
Why do you go the wrong way?
No it's not. You just divide the number of exits by the number of lanes to figure out which lane is for you.
In this case there are four exits and two lanes. If you're going for either of the first two exits, you therefore need to go in the left lane, and for the last two exits, the right lane. And of course indicate as soon as you're past the final exit before yours so that others know what you're aiming for.
they wouldn't be so confusing if people knew how to fucking use them properly like pic related
there there, I fixed it.
just take the right lane every time
There are arrows on the ground and direction signs you tard
Bet you get honked at all the time, Piotr.
Stop living in opposite world
Thank you, Jesus
wtf everyone's on the wrong side now
lmao
this one is a good one. people get confused all the time here. they take up the right lane instead of the middle one.
Roundabouts with more than 2 lanes can be quite dangerous, especially if you're the only fuking one to use your blinkers and actually follow the rules.
That said people are still cunts even with only one lane.
Seriously ? Charles de Gaulle has a roundabout in your town ? That's nice.
people here just stick to the right lane. Which is annoying because that completely defeats the purpose of a roundabout with more than one lane and it gets clogged when it shouldn't.
pic related, nightmare roundabout from my town
Damn, driving is hard. I can't believe how many people casually engage in such a dangerous activity.
Oh I know a roundabout similar to this in my city. It feels like it's off-center and at a point there's an extra lane that exist for like 4 meters before dissapearing into oblivion, forcing people who don't know the roundabout to merge quickly into the other lane. It's stupid sometimes.
If the double lane roundabout has lots of traffic you can just use the outer lane, if there's less traffic you stay in the inner, shorter lane. Easy.
My British pall...I am flummoxed cause of direction they are going.
How long does it take you to adjust to driving direction in civilized world ?
This is unusual for me so I don't know how I would act on British roads . I guess it would take me a day to adjust
What ? No. You use the inner lane if you go left. Your traffic "trick" is impossible as there's always someone trying to be a dick.
same
especially hate "people" who are always in such big hurry they start smashing horn like crazy just because some it took 3 seconds for some grandpa to start moving after traffic light switched to green
fuck cars and fuck impatient "people"
Polish knockoff
If you use the inner lane in high traffic you can end up not being able to switch to outer lane of it is full of cars. Then you're stuck.
Oh I understood the other way, like someone trying to get past everyone on the outer lane by taking the inner. My bad.
This.
which is why this is how you're supposed to do it
>in civilized world
>tf
>tp
lmao
>You're coming from the bottom left and want to go to the top left ?
>Well fuck you, you don't have a left lane.
I mean the rest is pretty neatly done.
worst case scenario you go all around the roundabout, take your time to merge into the outer lane and wait on the line of traffic. Cars coming from the outside of the roundabout won't bother you because they have to yield.
But yeah usually roundabouts are a mess in high traffic.
youtube.com
fuck roundabouts/traffic islands. the yanks got it right.
Do you have a lot of those ? 3 lanes are kinda uncommon here.
We are #1 in roundabouts number in the world tho.
No those are rare. Only just outside cities or airports basically.
Same as here then. I hate those.
you are like fucking babies
use a roundabout at least once a week uneducated shit
heh
We have those here. Not so common bu there are
Why do the brits keeps ruining everything ?
What are the prizes?!
where did top left red car come from that he needs to be in the inner most lane in a turnabout with suck a small diameter
Not easy if the inner lane is also packet with cars
I guess if he came from the left. I honestly always try to stay out of the inner lane if there's 3.
laughing at you roudaboutlets
>Bongs: Stupid Americans, no one uses your measurements!!
>Everyone: What about traffic direction?
>Bongs: ..........gulp
It's just illustrative to know what to do, doesn't matters where it came from
thats because its objectively the best and safest way to drive
Here's a parisian nightmare.
>objectively
Explain.
basically they force you to drive an automatic
youtube.com
why put yourself through this bullshit in video below when autos exist?
youtube.com
traffic jams are basically all the time in the uk and manual is the default, there are these fucking roundabouts everywhere and people drive like shit
I don't see a problem. Is shifting gears hard?
Thanks for him I guess. Thanks for Marie Curie and Chopin then.
>This flummoxes and confounds every reasonable person.
Fix
Please. And this isn't even my final form.
because we are a nation of pricks more obsessed with road autism than safety
stalling,getting rammed at 40 mph by an arsehole in a audi in a 30 zone, 6 points on your license as you were technically at fault and three days waiting for a bed in the nhs hospital to patch you up.
why
Cute and esoteric.
Kek.
>here's your roundabout bro
just stay on gear 1 is it that hard?
why not
W E A K
I need to see Spain from space now, there's scheming there, you're building something !
i dont understand for what purpose they would put roundabouts everywhere it seems like it would cost more money if there was no benefit
Sometimes it's really a waste of money, other times you have a roundabouts in the middle of nowhere is because more roads are planned to be added around ans it's just not there yet.
Roundabouts just werk™
They are literally everywhere here.
Based Japan following our system even though we never colonised them.
who the fuck made that pic, it's fucking wrong
do you people even know how to drive?
No you're wrong, you stay on the right lane in this situation.
what situation?
red = wrong
green = right
There is one a couple miles from my house.. But then again I live in New England: i.e. civilized America
The situation you painted in red is the proper way of going straight.
Now what? When are you gonna acknoledge that multilane roundabouts are fucking dangerous? Roundabouts are good for B-grade roads, not for major traffic arteries.
never ever. where did you buy your driving licence
no wonder we have so many accidents, there are tons of retards around us
I had it in France, a place when you actually don't buy your way into having a license.
You guys have a reputation of driving tractors and cars falling appart, while driving india-style.
White just has to fucking wait until he's not going to drive straight into someone, Hans.
Very simple.
Brown has to yield to gray though
Well yeah, you yield when entering, basic rule.
If brown pulls out because they judge that white isn't close enough to be dangerous, then white can go but has ample space to slow the fuck down, which he should be doing anyway because it's a roundabout and only jackasses don't slow down for roundabouts.
this isn't the 1980's anymore, urban planning has caught up quite a bit. There's a fair number of roundabouts in North America nowadays, and there's even two or three multilane roundabouts in my immediate area, although they're mainly prevalent in places that have either been newly developed or had an infrastructure refresh
btw this is on the road that connects important trade harbour with capital city, so there are a lot of trucks slowing the traffic
Now that is (I think) designed to slow the traffic and avoid speedsters.
So what's the point of having two lanes on the inside if everyone on the outside has to wait until absolutely fucking everything is clear because all the paths cross a million times? And how do people waiting to enter know which lane a car on the far inside will exit in?
2 way entry, two way exit. You stay where the fuck you entered to go straight or I should be allowed to violently bump into you and leave with no consequence. Fucking entitled idiots, today I saw several people skipping a line on the left to then turn right and cut everyone off at the roundabout. I sincerely hope every single one of them has a shitty life. I was too far behind in the line to verbally abuse them. The cheekiest faked turning left to then just do a whole round and exit the roundabout as if they turned right, just to skip a line because they are entitled cunts. There are too many that shouldn't be allowed to drive, I hate primate tier intelligence people, spaghettiland is full of them, if you're italian and are reading this, I statistically fucking hate you.
>You stay where the fuck you entered to go straight
I agree, and you enter on the right to go straight.
>And how do people waiting to enter know which lane a car on the far inside will exit in?
Blinkers. Use them. Even tho you drive a BMW.
On exit I presume? Because using blinkers on entry is the most retarded fucking thing imaginable.
Yeah I was talking about the people exiting. Actually we are taight here that you should use your blinkers, but that while entering, you shouldn't expect people to use them.
So you learn how to watch the tires direction instead of the blinkers.
Fucking cunts.
>what is yielding
you're wrong and you also know absolutely nothing about our country
I can't believe how many retards have a driving licence
the only right way to drive in two-lane roundabouts
is weird that so many people don't understand roundabouts when it is just basic traffic rules. yield when you enter (due to the yield sign before the roundabout, always there) and yield when you switch lane (like always in traffic, it's the most basic law).
these are really the only rules that apply.
>You didn't signal to the right before exiting? That's not okay bro, you gotta do it, even if it's for 1 millisecond. Pay attention next time.
