To go straight ahead at a roundabout, you should normally approach in the left-hand lane, but check the road markings. At some roundabouts, the left lane on approach is marked ‘left turn only’, so make sure you use the correct lane to go ahead. You won’t normally need to signal as you approach, but signal before you leave the roundabout, as other road users need to know your intentions.
