How to take any exit to the right on a roundabout tips for the UK driving test. The examples shown are 3rd exit right, and 2nd exit right. Also explained is assessing the correct lane, and the road layout, and judging the traffic flow at a roundabout. The usual routine for taking an exit to the right at a UK roundabout is: interior mirror, right mirror, signal right, then move to the right hand lane if necessary depending on the road markings or lane layout at the roundabout. Entering the roundabout should be in the right hand lane for a right turn, or exit to the right, unless the road markings show otherwise. Some roundabouts that may be encountered on the UK driving test may allow right turns in the middle, or even left lanes.

Only ever enter a roundabout if you are completely sure it is safe to do so, making sure that you assess traffic in front of you, as well as traffic coming from the right in the roundabout whatever lane it is in. Cars or lorries in the right lane of a roundabout won’t necessarily stay in the right lane of the roundabout – at some point they will take an exit: this means that you should never pull out next to another vehicle in a roundabout, but either well in front, or behind it. This way it if goes somewhere that you haven’t anticipated in the roundabout you will still be safe.
