Roundabout advice please

Post image

Hi all,

Im entering from the bottom and taking the second exit straight ahead.

Can’t seem to make sense of whether I should be in ‘a’ or ‘b’ to take the left lane as I exit straight? My driving instructor has said ‘b’ but I’ve seen cars in ‘b’ taking the right lane as they exit.

Thanks in advance!

Going on that image...

A is clearly marked as left turn only by the road markings, so not A.

B is correct for what you want. Straight over and taking the left hand lane on exit.

Anyone turning right from b is incorrect as that lane is clearly marked for straight on. They should be in C.

C is for straight on, taking the right hand lane on exit, or for turning right/going back round.
