| 1281861 | 2012-06-16 03:38:00 | I never look at indicators for other drivers intentions. Always look them in the face and read the body language behind the wheel! With kiwi drivers thats hard but not impossible. | coldfront (15814) | ||
| 1281862 | 2012-06-16 03:56:00 | I have seen some people who indicate right to "pull into" the roundabout, and then indicate left and take the first exit as soon as they have entered the roundabout. | Fifthdawn (9467) | ||

With kiwi drivers thats hard but not impossible. 3920 I will only indicate on a roundabout if I am not changing direction - if I am going straight through I refuse to indicate. Most of the roundabouts I negotiate are tiddlers - either three exit roundabouts or those stupid pancake ones. If another driver cannot interpret my intentions, they shouldn't be on the road. It's not like I'm travelling at 100km/h with fully tinted windows through the roundabout. So I'm breaking the law. It's a stupid law, catering to the lowest common denominator. Fine me. |

The English can not understand why we indicate so much on a roundabout and most New Zealanders just wouldn't cope with some of the roundabouts they have there. |

Exactly right (Hemel Hempstead (www.holidaycorfu.org) roundabout would blow the average Kiwi driver's mind)! Driving in the UK is a pleasure compared to here... There is so much more consideration - but then the Poms are traditionally very polite! :D |

The London M25 ring-road is fantastic, loved the speed limit, yes we found the Poms' very courteous, back in 2003. Lurking. |

| 1281868 | 2012-06-16 05:12:00 | When you signal you are about to turn off, other cars can now go that couldn't if you were not turning off. The original question clearly stated "AFTER" the roundabout, NOT before, NOT during. I certainly DO NOT indicate after I have passed through a roundabout. What would be the point? Maybe I am being pedantic, but I answered what the question asked :) |
