In this short video we try and make Large Multi-Lane Roundabouts as simple as possible. Although the thought of large Multi-Lane Roundabouts seems scary. In a lot of cases they are very well laid out with signs and road marking. So, if you understand what to look for and what they mean. They can become much easier than you first thought.

With any junction, don’t be afraid of going the wrong way. You can always turn around and get back on course later. So, if for example you find yourself in a left only lane on the approach to a Large Multi-Lane Roundabout, but you want to go straight ahead but don’t feel like you have time or its not safe to change lanes. Just go left safely and then turn around later when it is safe. Even on a driving test it does not matter if you go the wrong way if what you do is safe.

This video was filmed using roundabouts in the area of Basingstoke Driving Test Centre in Hampshire

From one driving school to another - this video is excellent. What a great idea to do this.

This video is brilliant; one of the best I’ve seen explaining complex roundabouts. I’m an American visiting the UK soon with my family. I feel a little more confident after seizing your video. Thanks.

[roadtripdrivingschoollimit]

That's the clearest explanation for large roundabouts I've seen.i especially like the mirror and signal icons you use. Nice work.

[MauktikDeshmukh]

Thanks a lot, you saved my day.
This is probably the best video playlist to explain how to maneuver at roundabouts.
Because of your videos, i was able to choose correct lanes at Brighton Hill and Winchester roundabouts during my test 😊
