Aproach Straight
Before taking this lesson, please read and agree to our Terms and Conditions
Straight ahead in this example is the second exit.
Again use your MSPSL.
Mirrors. As you approach, check your interior mirror and begin to slow down.
Signal. As you will be going straight ahead, there is no need to signal on approach.
Position. Keep to the left lane - unless it is blocked or unless road markings tell you otherwise.
Speed. As with left turns, decide if you are likely to need to stop or not and adjust your speed and gear accordingly.
Look. When it is safe, enter the roundabout keeping to the left lane. Make sure you keep in the left lane as you go through - do NOT cut the corner.
As you pass the exit before the one you want to take, check your interior and exterior left mirrors and signal left. This lets other road users know you are intending to take the next exit off the roundabout.
Keep to the left lane as you leave the roundabout and remember to check your mirror as you accelerate away. Cancel your signal.
