Re: Roundabout indicating

Alasdair said:- I would choose to drive over the white paint... that will be the most obvious in terms of where you are going - to signal right will also confuse and stop a driver coming the opposite way (12 to 6) and therefore you have given out mis-information So might I - it just depends as we sa...

Re: Roundabout indicating

Lets separate the dual carriageway roundabout from the mini roundabout, quite different situations. Take the mini roundabout with 4 entry/exit points. By their very nature and usual location they are often difficult to navigate due to the available road space and to adhere to the highway code which ...

Re: Reg's Youtube Channel

I haven't run you video with sound yet, they don't like it in the office, ;) however I would offer this observation on the change in picture quality. After reaching the A65 your direction of travel changes such that you are driving into a bright sky which in turn throws the roadway into dark(er) con...

Re: Confessional

Re: Best driving roads - Based on experience.
