“Another example of piss poor cycling infrastructure”: Readers react to Jeremy Vine roundabout near miss

“Whoever signed that off as roadworthy at the council should hang their head in shame. At some stage that will become a cyclist killer, it's that poor.” HoarseMann replied: “The absence of 'right of way' stretches further than roundabouts. This sentence in the general rules section often gets overlooked: ‘The rules in The Highway Code do not give you the right of way in any circumstance, but they advise you when you should give way to others. Always give way if it can help to avoid an incident.’”

“I live in an area with a lot of directional lane two lane roundabouts,” says Moist von Lipwig. “If you pull out solely because someone is in the left turn lane , you're just asking for trouble. If they're not indicating and/or have a speed to match the turn they're making, it’s not an assumption to make.”
