Roundabouts – How to Approach and Navigate and Irish Roundabout
Approaching a roundabout
- Conditions at roundabouts may vary. When you’re coming up to a roundabout, look for directional arrows, road markings or signs which might be indicating which lane you should use for the exit you’re taking.
- Move into the correct lane in good time. use the 12 o’clock ‘golden rule’ to help you plan a safe course of action unless road signs indicate otherwise.
- Treat the roundabout as a junction, yield to traffic coming from the right, but keep moving if the way is clear
