to merge smoothly together and in doing so keep the overall traffic
stream flowing smoothly.
Remember - at a roundabout you must give way to traffic approaching from your right, unless told otherwise by road signs, road markings or traffic lights. Vehicles already on the roundabout may fail to signal correctly. If in doubt, hold back! Look out for vehicles:
At all stages use Mirror, Signal, Manoeuvre (MSN). Mini-Roundabouts: approach these as you would a normal roundabout but remember there is less space and you will have less time to signal. You must pass around the centre markings. On Your Driving Test When Taking A Roundabout The Examiner Will Expect You To:
