Exiting Roundabouts (example: Wairere Dr, Gordonton Rd, Pardoa Blvd)
Hi All,
I’ve experienced this many times and today it was a close encounter, so thought of posting it. People often change lanes when just exiting the roundabout, which could be very dangerous. As I was standing on the Gordonton Rd(left lane) waiting to turn left towards Pardoa Blvd, I saw a car on the inner lane of the roundabout giving left indicator to turn/exit towards the Pardoa Blvd. As there are two lanes exiting the roundabout and no one was on the outer lane, I decided to take left. To my surprise that guy changed his lane at that moment and came right in front of me. I had to apply brakes to avoid the accident. On top of that he honked at me. I hope he understands his mistake.
I believe we not only need to know the rules but to understand people’s ignorance about the rules too...
Drive Safe everyone!
