Calling all drivers!

Have you had a bump?

I'll answer your question in a minute when I've had a look at the pics

 

We have something very similar locally, you wouldn't believe some of the near misses I've seen.

 

Looks a nightmare just waiting to happen. Panel beater's dream I reckon.
I'd go by bus or go the long way round,

I'm going with yellow as I have around about near me like this and if the traffic is particularly slow I will follow this route as a first left of the roundabout and use lane two both on entrance and exit (I'm guessing this is the maneuver in question)

 

I've cast my vote. One thing I would say is that the right-hand lane is poorly marked. Imo, it should have a right turn filter/arrow to indicate that straight ahead or right turn options are both available in this lane.

 

I'm going with yellow

 

My vote is cast. I'll now wait and see what FC reveals.

 

My actual head says Red as it is what I do, but I vote for Yellow, as it is always the case, when I am driving but I take extreme care when going straight ahead or turning right, as someone always cuts in on me going straight ahead, or undertakes me turning right

The usual roundabout etiquette round here is as follows:

100 yards from the roundabout, move to a completely random lane.
50 yards from the roundabout, prepare to put on your blinkers (not indicators, blinkers like a cart horse wears)
On entry onto the roundabout, switch on your indicators if you intend to go straight ahead, or indicate left if you are turning right, or right if you are turning left, at your leisure.
Take the racing line rather than staying in line. This is possible because you are wearing your blinkers. If this involves cutting someone off, that's fine, how often do they test their brakes anyway?
From the innermost lane, wait til you see a random exist that may or may not be the one you want, and then look out the right side window while steering hard to the left to take the exit.

 

The trouble with this kind of cock up is that if you know the junction you are going to take it very differently to someone who doesn't.
As Freddy said on the run up there appears to be no right turn option.

The hatched areas half way round are obviously designed to catch out the newcomers.
Must have been designed by a committee.

And who was it that decided that signals are a good idea on roundabouts, if you need signals, then dig up the roundabout and build a block of flats on the freed up land.
Just turn it into a normal junction.

I really like the name "Hospital Bridge Roundabout".

 

You should be keeping your eye on the road John
