If they are signaling right, towards you, you obviously do not enter. But what do you do if there's no signal and they are riding the inner lane ? Do you plunge right in only to see they were after all about to exit, just forgot to signal ? Very risky.
I see the signal as a way to communicate inside the circular road, where normal lane rules apply: you keep your lane, and if the lane in right is free, you can switch to it after signaling. Repeat until exit.
Also, a left signal before entering is useful: it says you are taking the 3rd or more exit, and that you will make a tight turn around the center, with slow speed. This way, people entering after you can plan to pass you on your right and continue forward.
- DanBC 11y agoThese lefts and rights take a bit of parsing because UK drive on the left so their signals would be different.
- SlashmanX 11y agoThis sounds completely alien to me and I'm from a country that uses roundabouts extensively. Indicating before you get onto the roundabout and keeping that indicator on the whole time just sounds very wrong. Also changing lanes at will is odd. You join into the inner lane if your exit is after 12 o'clock, and then indicate your exit after you have passed the one before your intended exit. 'Passing' on a roundabout is also a strange phenomenon I've never really seen before (unless it's unintentional of course)
