Big multilane roundabouts can be scary, They are simpler than you think, you just need to know what to look for.
We have filmed this on a brand new 5 lane wide roundabout in Basingstoke, but what you learn hear can be applied to anywhere.
Ian guides you through 6 examples of it, pausing in places to really explain in detail what to look for.
00:00 Intro
00:05 Example 1 Brighton Hill to Cranbourne 5th Exit
02:55 Example 2 Brighton Hill to Town Centre 4th Exit
05:02 Example 3 Oakley to Brighton Hill 4th Exit
07:45 Example 4 Brighton Hill to South Ham 3rd Exit
09:29 Example 5 Brighton Hill to Oakley 2nd Exit
11:02 Example 6 South Ham to Brighton Hill 3rd Exit

I don't know who you are, I just want to thank you for this video from the bottom of my heart as I have passed my driving test today because of this video. I was being trained from someone else but this video is one of the reasons for my success, as you clearly explained the round about in a clear and understandable way, which I can't forget throughout my life. Thank you for all your efforts.

I am an absolute beginner, thank you so much all of your videos are really really helpful. I am still nervous to handle roundabouts , I truly believe I will improvise taking hints yours. Could you please make videos on Mirror checks while lane changing / cross roads understanding and road markings to think independently? This channel is simply brilliant thank you again for all your efforts 😊

Excellent explanation of how to tackle this roundabout. Well done! Good point made about poor signage. I will add my two penny worth about the road signs: Would it not have been better to use curved left and right turn arrows on the road signs where necessary, rather than only hard right/left angle arrows? Most multilane roundabouts around the England use curved arrows on the signs to indicate a curved turn off.

Great Video thanks. I’d suggest looking at coming from Winchester Road roundabout direction and heading to South Ham on this roundabout. The leader dots take you to the far right (inside lane), if you catch the next sign early it wants you in lane number 3 of 4 so you have to then switch back left immediately, which is quite frankly dangerous. Also have you thought about covering Thornycroft roundabout in Basingstoke too? There are some misleading markings on that roundabout that encourage drivers to go around the outside of you. Example, coming from Hospital direction, going right 3rd exit (South Ham, B3400). Why don’t they have right arrows on the floor/signs so everyone knows it’s the far right lane only, for all instances of right 3rd exit on this roundabout?

@ThinkDriving 5 ай бұрын

Thanks, glad you like it, Unfortunately I’ve never sat in on a road planning meeting where they decide these things, But based on some bits I’ve picked up over the years a lot of it is to do with traffic flow. So maybe the percentage of cars going from Winchester road round to south ham is very low, so was taken into account when deciding how to use the space they had? I don’t know just theories based on 24 years on the road We have thought about thornycroft, and it is on the list 👍

Spiral roundabouts where I live have one sign approaching the roundabout then only road paint without the dots to help you. Up north

They differ even here, some are good, some are bad, but learn from these examples and try and work out the best way for each one you arrive at :)

Excellent teaching! 🎉 Just a question, for traffic lit rounabouts, do you still have to signal when exiting?

@ThinkDriving 2 ай бұрын

Thank you With signals, always think to yourself, is it misleading? If it’s not then do it, In that situation, it could help someone trying to cross the road you are about to exit on, so would help them Hope this helps

Great video! I've been driving for over 20 years, but I'm really struggling with Cranbourne/Viables TO South Ham. Whatever I do that combination still feels awkward! Please do you have any advice for that one?
