No worries, glad its helping :)

All your vids are great - thanks. :)

Thank you so much, this is great!

great interactive tutorial

This was really useful, thanks!

great tutorial for beginners, but I have to say these were easy roundabouts. Some have multiple lanes and are very busy, with road users either not indicating or indicating wrong. which are hard to navigate even for experienced drivers. I would love to see a tutorial on one of those islands.

+loupixuk Hi thanks for your comment, this video is intended to help people with the idea of how they work, once you have the basic idea you can then go and learn the harder more complex roundabouts,

Thank you, really good video. I have my test next week and its just multilane roundabouts Im not 100% confident with, mainly reading others users but this has really helped so hopefully I can out in practice this morning on my driving lesson!! I also used to live in Farnborourgh, so thats was funny to recognise !

Hello! Just wanted to say that this video helped me! I just got one question regarding driving in a roundabout/traffic circle. My mum uses a teqnichue where she sees where the car is going to go based on it’s position and blinking. I am very bad at doing this and was wondering if you could explain it? Or make a video on how to read the direction of a car in a roundabout? In a big roundabout I get overwhelmed because there are so many cars driving at once, and I have been told that you need to be effective and get out of that roundabout as soon as possible, but I just stand there and don’t know if the cars are going to keep driving straight ahead (in which case I can drive because it creates a gap) or to the left (in which case the car drives past me and appears on my left, and I am forced to wait)

Hi this video is what that is all about. What you could do is go and stand by some busy roundabouts and look for the gaps gets used to looking at what cars are doing. If you stood by lets say 6 busy roundabouts for 10 minutes each, that is probably going to give you the same about of experience of reading it than doing 100's of roundabouts in a car. It really does help. Mainly because you don't have the pressure of actually having to go onto the roundabout so can concentrate on learning to read the cars. Good luck let us know how you get on :)

hi thank you for this video , very helpful. can i request that you can do one like this for smaller roundabouts please. thank you sir!

We sure can, you can also just go and stand next to a roundabout and watch the traffic, take the pressure away of being in the car :)

Hi. This is probably a stupid question but is there ever a time when you can go when there is a car on the inside lane? I have seen people doing this (when the car is going slow or when it is before a certain point on roundabout) or is it like don't go at all when a car is in the inside lane? Thanks

Hi sorry for the really slow reply, i have only just seen this comment. I understand what you are saying, learners try to do this a lot, the answer is no both lanes need to be clear as you dont know for sure if the driver on the inside lane wants to out at any point, and if you pull out next to him he cant. Hope this has helped, im sure you have probably passed by now anyway :)

lets say its 3 lane roundabout im about to turn left, traffic next to me is also waiting gap, can i move same time with my traffic if they see a gap or its bit risky? even if they block my view can i use that traffic like a shield? lets say same about going straight ahead?

Never use them as a shield, you should always be able to see for your self. Think to yourself, what if they go then change your mind will you react as quickly, or what if they go much faster then you and a bike come fast behind them, So always make sure you know it’s safe. Hope this helps 👍

In a driving test, is it a major to miss an opportunity at a roundabout?

It depends on how big the gap was that you missed and how obvious the gap was

I got a couple of minors at roundabouts for hesitation but it’s not going to be a serious or dangerous fault because you’re not affecting anyone’s safety by being overly cautious 👌🏻

If you Stop when you don't need to even when no one is behind you the minors can become a serious if there are to many of the same one so be careful :)

If I am not sure and if I dont go, will I get a minor for that? And if I repeat this hesitation for more than 3 times am I gonna fail?

It’s hard to put a measure on it, every gap is open to interpretation, so if you miss a massive obvious gap that’s a problem, if you miss a tiny 50/50 gap that is not so
