Love those people that indicate left going into a roundabout, by the time I see you I don't know where you started indicating left so I have no idea where you're going :D
- bryanlarsen 3y agoThat's what I was taught. If you're doing 270 degrees in a roundabout, you signal left when entering, cancel in the roundabout and right when exiting.
- barbazoo 3y agoLet's say you enter at 6 o'clock, indicating left to leave the roundabout at 9 o'clock. The car seeing you at 12 o'clock doesn't know if your "left blinking" means you exit at 12 o'clock, 9 o'clock or even 3 o'clock. Wouldn't it be better to just indicate right when leaving the roundabout, that way no one can get confused?
- bryanlarsen 3y agoAt 6 o'clock your left blinker is on. At 5 o'clock your blinker is off. At 11:30 your right blinker is on.
- barbazoo 3y agoI see, what I see here is people leaving the left blinker on the whole time like I described. In your example, what's the purpose of left blinking between 6 and 5:30 then, it's the only path you could possibly take so is there a need for indicating at all?
- bryanlarsen 3y agoI don't know, it was just what I was taught. It certainly is useful for 2 lane roundabouts where left turners go into the inside lane, so probably is maintained for consistency with smaller roundabouts.
