Common sense says left lane for 1st and 2nd cut offs, right lane for 3rd cut off (effectively a right turn if there was no roundabout). So why do so many people sit in the left lane and trundle all the way round the roundabout to the 3rd exit, only to be surprised when a 3T Transit announces its position on the road with a loud horn gesture?
The problem with this, most people dont follow or understand what the roundabout signs say. Used to happen when I lived in Wales, a roundabout (with a clear sign) both lanes for left into the dual carrigeway, right lane for any othe exit.
but people still insisted on using the left lane for the 2nd exit!
