Roundabouts in England in general are awfully signed. Anyway, I don't think that was the cause of the drivers behavior, his look on his face seemed impavid and serene, he didn't look lost or confused with his direction at all. Also, he didn't give signaling to change lane and he straightened the wheels so he was going straight.Originally Posted by Mal103
As for the filtering side, I always see everyone filtering in between cars/layers, so some cars are being filtered from the right and others from the left. I did that when police cars are in the queue and also you can see videos of police in motorbikes doing the same. Can't see where the problem is on going between lanes when traffic is stopped.
I think is good to say on this thread that every time I have to filter, drivers (here in england) do their best to clear the way for my filtering. It is actually difficult for me because I have to thank them all (with nods or left hand)this video was the only time I saw someone closing the gap in purpose (yes, I still think was in purpose).
wiltshire builders: We all learn with our mistakes. It sounds like it was a serious moment. Glad you are ok.
Conehead: I don't see the problem of changing lanes before getting into the roundabout. What I see is people from the most right lane cutting the middle lane entering to the round about. But that's like when people turn into a road, they don't know how to make a 90ยบ turn, ie without crossing the other lane. This happens so much here in England. Not saying I never do mistakes and taht I'm a very good driver/biker but I see so much bad driving in UK compared to my country.
Anyway, when you see the video just have a laugh, not too worry too much. I learned my lesson for next time thanks to your comments.
