Motorway RulesDifficulty: 3/5
You are in the left lane of a multi-lane roundabout on a dual carriageway. A long articulated lorry in the lane to your right is signalling left to take the next exit, but it is straddling the lane markings and slowing down. What is the safest action for you to take?
Explanation
You should drop back and give long vehicles plenty of room on roundabouts, as they need more space to manoeuvre and may straddle lanes when turning. Riding or driving alongside them in the space they need to turn is dangerous. The Highway Code (Rule 80) advises that it may be safer to wait until a long vehicle has cleared the roundabout before you proceed.
