How to turn right at traffic lights UK : Driver POV

Hey guys,
In this video, I will show you how to turn right at traffic lights. It's not too focused on box junctions, that is on another video.
I show you how to turn right at traffic lights on small junctions and bigger ones that lead to dual carriageways.
This was filmed around Hendon and Mill Hill test areas so these junctions are from real driving test routes.
If you like this video, don't forget to like it and subscribe to the channel.
Thank you for watching.

This is so helpful! I am still terrified of turning right at lights and I passed in 2012!

Thank you very helpful video I am new in the uk and I feelt so disappointed with the traffic rules here its really crazy I do not know why they had to make such poor roads system

[@abdinasirmuuse5695]

Thank you very much

[@lukemarsden5872]

great head cam

[@piotrmaslanka7334]

I'm a week away from my test and the problem with my test centre is that it has a crazy amout of roundabouts, meaning little number of traffic light controlled junctions, but they do still exist and don't have enough experience with different situations (don't think I ever encountered the situation at 21:00) so don't wanna fail my test if it happens. I took a screenshot of that visual representation where oncoming vehicles both turn right.

Thank You

Thank you. If I am ever around there I will do a video 😁

Thanks for the video, really needed that because I’ve got my test on Friday. Thanks a lot, do you have any last minute tips.

[@ZONDOdriving]

You're welcome. Good luck on your test. 👍🏾👍🏾

多謝！

[@Saffron125]

Very useful, thank you. One situation you didn't mention - if the green arrow indicating you can turn right goes blank, but the main light (on the same stand) is green, can you still turn right (obviously taking extra care)?

[@ZONDOdriving]

Hi Johanne. Good question. Yea you can turn if the green arrow goes blank, but you still have the normal green, you can go as long as there’s no incoming vehicles.

[@MrDunosan]

@3:07 why were you on the right hand lane after turning and stayed on the right hand lane for awhile? Shouldn’t you be turning right and enter the left hand lane and stay there? Looking at it carefully, was is just a wide road?

[@glazersout4272]

22:00 - would the safest thing be to wait for the light to change to red, as you said there could've been cars doing 50mph hidden behind that red van?

[@ishratsatter5628]

Please can possibly do how to spreed control automatic car. Like examples where is show roads signs 20,40,40.., like I always go up speeds 5,6 mile up. Cos if I will do test time 20 miles road 25,26 will be fail. Please kindly help me and do automatic car speeds control how do. And also manual. Cos differences people do lessons automatic and manual. Ur video is really really helpful that’s why requesting u

[@B41LL13]

At 1:41 how comes you indicate early when there is a right turning before the one you eventually take? Are you not allowed to turn into that road?

[@ajibola3052]

How do I notice I need to stay left to make a right turn, in some right turn at the traffic light??? I have failed twice on this.

[@gabrielagrant3856]

Hi this video is very helpful do you give lessons around East London?

[@ZONDOdriving]

Hi 👋🏾. Glad you find the video useful. Unfortunately I only cover NW London.

[@ElevationLowJJ]

Discretionary right turns are dangerous. They are expected to be phased out in Singapore.

[@kundankanan9074]

At 17.17, why the cars weren't moving. Was a filter right arrow, but then on the junction there were signs to go behind for waiting for right, if I saw it correctly, so bit confused.

[@ZONDOdriving]

Hi 👋🏾. Not sure what you mean by “signs to go behind for waiting for right” but those cars weren’t moving because at that junction, one side has green light while the other has red. And if you’re not familiar with the junction, you won’t know that until you move forward and then see that they are not moving. Hope that helps.

[@kundankanan9074]

@@ZONDOdriving Thank you, and my apologies if I was not clear in the first instance. ​ my apologies, the sign on the road at 17.14 seems to indicate it is right side to right side, which I will assume happen when people on opposite side can potentially take right turns needed. But here it seems opposite flow had stopped, so it confused me.

[@ZONDOdriving]

@@kundankanan9074 ah yes that makes sense. I see why you might have been confused. Those arrows are also useful for showing traffic that’s turning right the path they should take. Even if they aren’t going to wait in the middle.

[@kundankanan9074]

@@ZONDOdriving Thank you for all the guidance . I passed my test with 3 minors in Mill Hill today and big part of the credit goes to you-- both in terms of skills and nerves.

[@hamidalvee]

timing of signal @ 8:45 ? is it correct as there was a street to the right?

[@ZONDOdriving]

That's not a road as such.

[@sanachams1931]

At 4:16 we can see a new green light (right green arrow) in additional to the traffic light already green So it’s confuse me, should i wait for the green arrow first before moving?

[@ZONDOdriving]

Hi. So the green arrow lets you know that the oncoming traffic has a red, which means you can go. You can still go before the green arrow if there's a big enough gap between the traffic, or if the oncoming traffic stops.

[@sanachams1931]

[@fishsauce7497]

Helpful video. But such a shame! A simple act of turning right has been made incredibly challenging by DVSA.

[@ZONDOdriving]

Thank you. Interesting to hear you say that though. Why do you think it's been made challenging and how would you improve it?

[@fishsauce7497]

@@ZONDOdriving Couple of things which I think can be sensible: 1. Maximise the use of filter lights and allow straight on and right going traffic at a time. This is to avoid as much as possible traffic crossing each other's path. A study in america has shown this reduces collition rate by 69%. 2. Having filter lights can help in setting up more advance combinations, where depending on traffic, going right only or staright ahead only can be chosen for optimisation purpose. 3. Try to implement consistency. E.g. if I have already turned right I should be allowed to go full way. Why there should be another give way line and / or a red light or a pedestrain crossing to stop me at a tiny space to move further? 4. Implement countdown timer on red lights as this helps a lot in being proactive. In all, what I am trying to say is that junctions should be intuitive and not a puzzle to solve

Dash cam should have been used rather than head cam so that the viewers could concentrate on the road only. The car roof has covered half of the screen
