Your on the motorway, lane 1. You are going exit at the next junction. The
exit slip road is two lanes as you leave it leads to a roundabout and you
intend to take the third exit at the roundabout (Turn right effectively).
Clearly you need to be in lane 2 of the slip road on the approach to the
roundabout.
Is the correct procedure.

1. Keep on the motorway and exit directly into lane 2 of the slip road. ie
Keeping the exit road markings to you left and turning directly into lane 2
of the slip road.

2. Exit directly into lane 1 of the slip road and then move over to lane two
of the slip road.

Problems.

If you follow 1 above, You risk the car behind you trying to end up in the
same place (Slip road lane 2)

If you follow 2 above, You risk a car overtaking you and trying to end up
in the same place.


I submit this question to the "Font of all knowledge" for the definitive
answer!

Wrong group, but I would say keep in lane two then indicate well in advance
and drift into lane one.
I do this five nights per week going home.

Yes (unless the slip road is unusually long). Why do you even need to
ask?

I don't understand what you mean.

Do you cause many accidents by taking the 3rd exit at a roundabout and
entering that roundabout from lane one of the slip road, or did you not
read the post correctly?
