Not all roundabout markings tail off to each exit, in fact most don't, you are supposed to know when safe to exit, and the motorcycle had every right to. There are 2 lanes on the adjoining road so both outside and middle lanes may both join, just watch the three cars in front of the bike, they all join just fine. The car is at fault.

The motorcyclist was in the right lane, and cut across the left lane to turn left. Both at fault.

This thought changed abruptly when I enterd the first roundabout.... I figured I'd stick to my lane and be alright, but it wasn't that easy. Eventually I looked it up, watched videos etc. to find out how they work. I got it now and can say the car was in the wrong, but in most other countries he wouldn't have been in the wrong.

No he didn't, his lane went onto the exit so what are you talking about? if you are still confused look at the like 6 cars in front in his lane that also take the exit to join the main road, now the car driver however did make an illegal lane split. Again, look at all the cars in front of him (and read the markings on the road while your at it), what are you talking about?... I have to assume your from a country that doesn't do roundabouts. Nope, both lanes are for the exit... it's to a main road and is why more or less all the vehicles involved are going that way, the left lane MUST take the exit, the right lane can EITHER take the exit or carry on around the roundabout.

The car driver was obviously in the wrong for the lane discipline, observation & signalling. But at the same time we should always try to ride with a bigger margin than that at roundabouts and junctions. Totally avoidable - no need to be closing the gap like that at an exit, even if it is reasonable to expect the car in front to stay in lane. I've had similar accidents and I think it is important for us riders to realise that whilst in an ideal world car drivers will notice us, the truth is that modern cars have huge blind spots (thick pillars for cabin safety) and bikes are small, quick & in unpredictable road positions & not all car drivers are attentive. It frightens me how much faith some riders put in car drivers to act predictably or to have seen/considered them. Ultimately we are responsible for our own safety and must always expect the worst from other road users if we expect to remain safe. I'm not having a go at the rider - I think most riders with any miles have had an off like this one. But also have to be real, blaming car drivers for their mistakes doesn't make us any safer and we can all be a bit safer on the road, usually just a little bit more patience and space is all we need. Thankfully it looks like a hot bath and a trip to the garage should sort it all out. Take care out there guys.

ArcticCatsRock He's not an idiot. On the right lane, he can either go left or go straight. On the left lane, where the car was at, vehicles need to turn left. If you were saw a car at a turning lane, you *will* assume that the driver will turn because they're on that lane. Same goes for the biker here. He assumed that she was gonna turn because she's, by law, required to turn on that lane.

if you're in the lane of the silver Passat, you cannot follow the road right, you must take the left exit in that lane. that's the highway code in the UK. obviously the guy was not uk born and either didn't know that, or made a mistake and tried to go right anyway.

We all can see how the rules of the road work, even if they are a bit different country to country. The car driver should've stayed in the left lane, but the biker could've easily avoided that also. Besides, it looks like he went down before he touched the car. Simply inexperienced. Any driver who knows what to do would've swerved right by them.

My strategy when driving is to assume that anything that could possibly happen - will happen sooner or later. Other drivers running the red light, unexpected sudden lane changes, pedestrians/bikers/kids/animals jumping out of nowhere... I'm driving all around the EU for almost 15 years and had 5+ major accidents avoided, 50+ minor accidents avoided and still 0 actually happened because I was alert and ready. People say to me that I'm lucky, but no, it has nothing to do with luck. Extrteme caution is what saves you.

I've got my license, I'm a US driver, and I can say with absolute certainty that the fault is entirely on the driver of the car. You just have to think of everything in a flipped manner in this circumstance, where the car may be on the right side taking a right exit. They did not exit, but the person in one lane over (who is allowed to go straight) continued down their course, resulting in a collision. The person driving the car is at fault, there is simply no discussion.

It also looks to me that the person in the inside lane must stay and continue through the roundabout. We have roundabouts here and lane-splitting here California too. As a motorcyclist myself, I would not even consider exiting from the inside lane *UNLESS* there is clear signage that it is a protected lane that must exit. But perhaps you guys are right. When I see the red car and several ahead exiting from the footage, maybe it's legal - though I don't get it.

The bike was taking the inside(middle) lane to the exit, which is perfectly legal because the main rule of a round-a-bout which disallows you to continue through the circle from the third outside(exit only) lane. The car had already departed onto the third(exit) lane and changed his mind mid way and pulled back across lane 2 without indicating to get back into the circle pushing the bike out of his rightful place. If the rule wasn't broken by the driver of the car, traffic would have flowed seamlessly.

Watching it a few times then you realize that it was no ones fault but flaw of design in the traffic direction. It happens everywhere. Both are turning lanes but one is an optional straight.

Wow! I have driven in Europe, Brazil and the US and this intersection is very confusing. Roads are suppose to be universal so people understand the rules of the road. The road starts off with three lanes with the left lane exiting before crossing an intersection and converting to two lane with a third lane appearing directly after the intersection to become an entrance road connecting directly to a double lane fork in the road with a bend in it. That's a recipe for disaster. The guy in the silver car is in the left lane and the guy in the red car was in the right lane and they converged into the middle lane. If that red car was going a little slower he would have been in the accident. There are no arrows showing the way. The guy in the silver car should have been in the middle lane if he wanted to turn right. You can see him looking at the biker before colliding into the biker.
