How to Use Turn Signals When Driving Around a Roundabout?
1 Answers
When navigating a roundabout, the use of turn signals is as follows: 1. Left turn at the roundabout: If the vehicle is turning left, choose the left lane inside the roundabout. Since the vehicle needs to merge from the outer lane to the inner lane, the left turn signal should be activated upon entering the roundabout to indicate to other vehicles inside and behind that "this vehicle is merging into the inner lane for a left turn." When exiting the roundabout, the right turn signal should be activated in advance. After confirming safety, change lanes from the inner lane to the outer lane of the roundabout and then exit. 2. Going straight through the roundabout: If the vehicle is going straight, choose the middle lane inside the roundabout. Since the vehicle does not need to change lanes after entering the roundabout, the left turn signal is not required upon entry. However, when preparing to exit the roundabout to continue straight, the vehicle will need to cross the right lane inside the roundabout, so the right turn signal should be activated to alert other vehicles. After confirming safety, exit the roundabout. 3. Right turn at the roundabout: If the vehicle is turning right to another intersection, it can choose either the right lane inside the roundabout or the outer lane for a right turn. The situation when entering the roundabout is similar to going straight, so the left turn signal is not required. However, after selecting the corresponding intersection, the right turn signal should be activated in advance, and the vehicle should exit the roundabout by turning right after confirming safety.
