When turning right on a dual carriageway or at a crossroads, it's not uncommon to see two paths of traffic that both have give way lines. Who goes first when both have to give way?

I am finally in the ‘I passed but am still watching’ crew. The best advice I can give is to remember that the examiner is a person, and they’re at work! They’ve seen people all day every day and in the least rude way possible, you’re not special! It’s not a test, it’s a check to see if you’re safe to be out on your own. If you’re not safe, you don’t want to pass! You don’t wanna be out there on your own if you’re gonna hurt yourself or someone else. Stay as calm as you can, as soon as you meet the examiner you’ll start to feel better. Deep breaths, you’ll get there!! Try not to think about all the reasons you want to pass and instead think about where you’re gonna drive. Think ‘dot to dot’ one thing at a time!! Good luck!

It can't be worse than the roundabout in my hometown that was notorious for two reasons: The road markings and traffic signs didn't match, and the road markings were incorrectly painted, so each lane was more of a concentric circle than the spiral that keeps you in the right lane and feeds you neatly to be able to take the junction you want. They have finally sorted it out a few years ago, but it was wrong for a good ten years or so!

That's defensive driving in a nutshell and the correct way to drive. You don't know what kinda crazy manoeuvre the other person is going to pull, so going simultaneously is risky, and belligerently pushing ahead first might get their hackles up. If you are both politely allowing the other to go, you can check for other cues such as the proximity of oncoming cars on either side, nearby parked cars you'll have to negotiate immediately afterwards and so on.

Hi Conquer Driving, more good work as we have come to expect, but there is one issue that I see that might be important. The traffic turning right onto the dual carriageway has a double broken line for give way to traffic on the dual carriageway from the right, the traffic coming from the left off the dual carriageway also has a double broken line at the threshold but only for traffic crossing and turning right, this means that those cars must wait for the others to cross if there is no other traffic around. Cheers, Richard.

Thank you! Have loads of these on A1 Scottish section as well as the A9. Once on the A1 a Land Rover driver from behind tried to bully me into going as I waited to turn right to join A1, who then had a go at me and then squeezed past me to turn right… Part of me being cautious was also the lines are very faded, made it not possible to judge how big is the area in the middle, or knowing if the car from the other side will actually give way (like the lorry in your clip). Also worth noting, the side of a car can take far less impact so need to be extra careful when turning right.

@5:44 - I've just today done an *almost* exact mirror image of this Junction, it's an exit from Bolventor (on Bodmin Moor, Cornwall) onto the A30 Dual Carriageway to turn right to the east. A van showed up at that 2nd Give Way line (one you drew a red arrow on) he did the unexpected: used it to U-turn Left(Westbound) onto the road I was giving way to. So I didn't exactly get to test your video's theory! :D But it is coincidental you posted this video of this twin junction the day I came across it. Planning your route on Streetview helps a lot.

There were many of these within Milton Keynes' high speed grid road system; often associated with access into and out of business parks and residential estates. However many drivers new to MK, did not know how to use them correctly and enough collisions occurred that in the past decade or so, several of them have either been removed entirely or simplified to allow traffic to turning in only one direction.

In Germany there is a give way line for traffic turning left from the centre lane (it’s a mirror image because in Germany one drives on the right, of course) immediately before the branch road in the situation you describe at 3:23. This stops waiting traffic from preventing vehicles coming out of the branch road from crossing the main road.

I have been driving for 7 years and have never seen anything like this. After looking at the thumbnail a little bit, I could figure it out fairly easy. However, I could image this type of road junction being very confusing when first seeing it in person. I could imagine there's quite a few crashes here... I can certainly imagine a situation where a car goes to enter the middle box from the side road when a car fails to give way from the give way on the left, causing the side road car to have to stop in the live lane to avoid hitting them.

Generally it's the side road that goes first here, coming off the A5 you have to cross the path of those emerging into the centre and the Southbound traffic on the A5. That said those Northbound can start to creep into the centre to signal intent and block those turning right path before having to cross the carriageway.

This is exactly how the junction turning into our estate is.

You also unfortunately get people using them to do U-turns...

The give way lines simply mean the main road has priority so both need to give way to the main road, when there’s nothing on the main road and there are cars waiting at both side roads at the give way lines nobody has priority and eye contact needs to be made and a decision has to be made as to who would like to go first, it’s safer and best for traffic flow to let cars clear the middle from the inside before cars from the outside enter the middle, the Highway Code states that nobody has priority but road signs and road markings tell us when we should give way but always remember that some drivers may have a different opinion so always read each and every situation as they are all different.

No worries at all, you’re always very welcome! 🙃 To be honest with you I learnt it from Ashley Neal’s KZbin channel, when turning right at a dual carriageway with a central reservation I’ve seen a few KZbin videos explaining it wrong, they say when the main road is clear the car on the main road has priority over the car on the side road but that’s not correct, it doesn’t matter if there’s a central reservation or not, if both cars are turning right nobody has priority because you’re both crossing each others path, both have give way lines which simply means give way to the main road, it’s safer to let the cars in the middle in the central reservation clear first before entering the middle from the outside, it’s safer and it’s also better for traffic flow! ☺️

I always thought some junctions were designed like this if it is exceptionally busy such that it is almost impossible to turn right out of the t because of the number of vehicles turning right into the t and it is easier to turn in rather than out because there is one flow of traffic to give way to not two. Therefore those turning in have to give way to those turning out as well as any on coming traffic. If you look at road markings for example in Ireland it looks like those turning in always have to give way to those turning out as the give way line for those turning in is positioned further back than in the UK so it does not block vehicles turning out. Anyone know if this is the case?

I'm curious about what the UK rules are in the absence of other priority rules. I have only driven in Right Hand Traffic, where it is: Give way to traffic from the right. Applies in the absence of other priority rules. Is this the same, or flipped when you have Left Hand Traffic in the UK?

The position of the cars ( lines) makes it difficult and dangerous to join the main road. Giveway markings mean exactly that: Give way to incoming traffic. Once they entered the central reservation who ever entered first has priority. Anyway the way the lines are drawn will make it difficult for the blue to properly check if is safe to join the main road. Keep the car straight don't turn it right to early as you will not see in depth the road. The same goes for the red line. As much as possible position your self on the left of the central reservation and keep the car as straight as possible before you join to see as much as possible incoming traffic.

I think most people forget but the rules in The Highway Code do not give you the right of way in any circumstance, but they do advise you when you should give way to others, always give way if it can help to avoid an incident, nobody has the priority to do any particular turn but road signs and road markings will remind a driver when they need to give way, give way simply means give way to the main carriageway, both have give way lines so it means both need to give way to the main carriageway but neither have a right of way once the main carriageway is clear but for me personally I’d wait until the traffic in the middle has cleared before I enter as obviously it’s safer to enter when there are no cars waiting in the middle, if you enter while cars are already waiting in the middle there is always a risk of an accident happening, if you’re crossing the path of someone generally you would let the other person go first but it’s safer to wait until there is no traffic in the middle before entering.

I got a much more common question. A cross-roads. Cars from minor roads both want to turn right. I take that nobody has priority and its whoever goes first. Answered at time index 6.15. Pretend you haven't made eye contact!

Under normal circumstances you give way to the right. On this occasion, in my opinion neither has right of way over the other (RED/BLUE) and becomes more of being aware of what other road users are doing and should never expect priority. As priority is given, Not taken.

I work for devon highways, very basic level, and although i have very little knowledge regarding highway design and chapter 8 training, its common sense that all cross junctions can NOT be turned into roundabouts or have traffic lights etc placed bloody everywhere 🤣 especially having the largest road network in the UK. However i understand the cross junction struggle of side road priority as i am a learner driver and was at a mexican standoff recently lol. The eye contact advice is perfect, What would you do if you could not accommodate body language?

Interesting - not the answer I expected. I expected it to have been the blue route's 'priority', because, at the point of conflict, the blue route is more of a straight-ahead direction in front of the red route's waiting point, whereas the red route is turning more sharply right, across that 'straight-ish' blue path. Helpful extra points are made. But it seems there no actual 'priority' as such - more a case of common sense based on each situation of traffic etc.

In addition to my other comment, as a van driver I would have to be far more precise with my angles, because seeing traffic coming from the left requires closegto 90 degrees due to there being no side rear windows to see through. My van is long wheelbase, but one of the shorter variety. I can see this junction being a problem for a full-on long wheelbase vehicle.

If you have traffic to your right you should give way ! So on this figuration if I was the red traffic turning right I would give way to the traffic coming on my right !

I would have just assumed "give way to the right" and caused an accident. IMO the give way from the dual carriageway should be on the central reservation, and there be a yellow-hatched area where the two paths cross. That would be a lot clearer.

What happened to the driver with least work to do goes first? I would have thought the side road driver has priority if they keep the junction clear. Both have the same number of lines to cross but the side road driver is going straight and the other is turning right.

Confusing because you usually give way to those coming from the right. I therefore got it wrong as I thought the red would give way to the blue. Horid road design, should be a roundabout or filled in, forcing people to go left and turn around at the next roundabout.

Both the silver car and the DPD van are around 14 frames of video. So, let's give them the benefit of doubt and say the video is 30 frames per second (rather than 25 fps) then that equates to a gap of 0.5 seconds at best. Absolutely insane at that speed. What are they trying to prove with their bullying attitudes apart from they have less brain cells than an amoeba?
