A right exit is showed but not if you need the third exit, your position during going around past the exits you don't want.

So I’m as European would like to confirm, eu doesn’t have those 12 o’clock rule on roundabout as Uk have.. if roundabout would be 2 lanes I could go on the first lane and turn out to whatever exist I like, not like in Uk where first lane or roundabout goes to second exit only..

I'm surprised that the video does not include the roundabouts in France where the traffic joining the roundabout has priority over the traffic which is already on the roundabout. The most famous of these is the one at the Arc but there are many other smaller examples, particularly in the Paris region. You could be hit by the car behind if you stop and give way to traffic already on the roundabout. 😐

Yes, they are extremely rare because they are the first type. They are the french version, the official "roundabout" (Rond-point -> circle-dot). The others are English. They're really called Giro-crossroads (carrefour à sens giratoire). Those Giro-crossroads are way more easy and safe to use so most french cities started to use them rather than roundabouts, but the name of the first type was still used as it's easier. In the meantime, england didn't really use them (at first) so the french wording confusion had the time to spread. In France, when you go to theory, then practice driving school, you quickly learn about the 2 words, their meanings (very important for who has priority) and how to apprehend them. The inspector will use the official denomination during the test but it's very rare than an instructor or any other driver does so.

@@xperiencerecordz As I said, it depends upon what you mean by "extremely rare". My estimate is that around 5% of roundabouts in France are "priority from the right". Whether you consider 1 in 20 as extremely rare is a moot point.

Hopefully you mentioned Belgium in the title.. There are also very few roundabouts with priority to the right. People entering the roundabout have the priority. These are rare in Belgium) mainly in archaic country like France.

So in the uk we give way to drivers from the right. In Europe where they drive on the right hand side you give way to drivers on the left? (Trying to win a debate and any reply would be great haha)

@DjBlinkBlink

4 жыл бұрын

Hello mate, yes you are 100% correct. In Europe where they drive on the right side, they give way to drivers "on the left" at roundabouts. Basically all countries except UK, Cyprus, Ireland, and Malta give way to drivers on their left (examples showing these situations are in the video I posted above). Remember "give way" is different from "priority" because you are giving way but the other driver has priority (this is what confuses people when they read up about having priority on the right over a car approaching from the left) Cheers mate, DJ Blink-Blink

@@destroyinggaming4life410 junctions have a rule called "The priorité à droite rule" or 'Driver A' having priority from the right (which is also known as 'Driver B' giving way to vehicles to their left). This has a simple basis but some complicated applications. Essentially, because the French drive on the right hand side of the road, at a junction or roundabout the vehicle that is approaching from the right has priority over the one approaching from the left. Article R415-5 of the French highway code states: "When two drivers approach an intersection by different roads, the driver coming from the left shall be required to yield to the other driver, unless directed otherwise (by signage)." This applies at all times - unless other signage is in place. Basically keep an eye out for "give way" signs or a "priorité à droite" sign. Cheers, DJ Blink-Blink

if there is no indication, in France we give way to the right everywhere. But in most roundabouts you will find a give way sign in a shape of an upside down red triangle (white in the middle) that indicates you have to yeld to the cars that are already in the roundabout.

Rules for using indicators are also different from the UK. If I'm not mistaken, in the UK you signal as if it was a normal crossing. (f.e., if you inted to take the 3e exit, you indicate left) But in France and Belgium, Netherlands,... you don't indicate when entering the roundabout but you indicate right when you're going to take the next exit. Also, the give way doesn't mean you have to stop, so if there is nobody on the roundabout to your left (and no pedestrians/cyclists about to cross), you can just keep going.

@DjBlinkBlink

You nailed it 100% mate, we always indicate when driving into the roundabouts (left for first exit, no indication for straight ahead until we are about to exit then we indicate left, and then we indicate right if we plan to exit on the third or fourth exit, then we indicate left as we are about to exit). We also don't have to stop at giveaway lines if there is no car approaching. This video explains it more kzread.info/dash/bejne/hqKg0caOo9fYo8Y.html
