If you are coming off the roundabout and then past the tax office Whalley Road is on the left.

WELL SAID that is if they have leart properly and actually have a licence. I dont mind being cut up so much when im on my own in the car but when ive got my kids in its a different story

Re: Eastgate Roundabout Annoyance
 

Even if you are in the right lane if you are turning onto a road with just one lane. you should be in the left lane before turning left, not taking a left turn whilst still in the right lane cutting people up on the left. It is very dangerous this round about, luckily ive got a big van now so dont get cut up half as much. Do it I dare you! haha

Re: Eastgate Roundabout Annoyance
 

Right.

Left .. could be tempted into right land with as K.S.H as explained above.. carrying on to Manchester Road with great caution... don't think I ever have though. Ya' see .. if you are a stranger .. wouldn't dream of it .. but because we know it .. is tempting to get in the right lane to set yourself up correctly for the next stretch. Just have to hope that no one is on your left wishing to go on the car park or up Union Street emerging from Milnshaw Lane.

Re: Eastgate Roundabout Annoyance
 

Thats the whole point, once you have gone past the King St exit you move over from the right lane to the left lane, them that are in the correct lane though can't do this because of people hogging the left lane all the way round the roundabout :D

Re: Eastgate Roundabout Annoyance
 

ROFLMAO.... I wonder which lane they took? :D :D

Re: Eastgate Roundabout Annoyance
 

Er left hand lane :rolleyes: :D

Re: Eastgate Roundabout Annoyance
 

grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

Re: Eastgate Roundabout Annoyance
 

if your not into the left lany before you turn go round again

Re: Eastgate Roundabout Annoyance
 

both lanes as the exit actually has a second lane that filters

Re: Eastgate Roundabout Annoyance
 

i hate that too!

its just annoying when people use the left lane and just keep on going around the roundabout. its not a motorway that the left lane is for slow drivers...

without decent signage this will carry on

a great roundabout is the whitebirk in blackburn - they've really sorted it out nicely with clear markings and signage.

Re: Eastgate Roundabout Annoyance
 

Dont let it get you angry.:D

I presume this is going on to Hyndburn road, I was thinking this myself.

Re: Eastgate Roundabout Annoyance
 

i was always taught - by several people including my advanced driving instructor at the time, that if you come up to a roundabout and want to turn left (or any other turning up to and including the one at a 12 oclock position) then you use the left lane - but anything after the 12 oclock position relative to where you are (and at the eastgate roundabout asda exit is actually at about the 1 oclock position)then you use the right lane and indicate and move left immediately after passing the exit before - which i believe is marked originally as your 'red lane'? the highway code book which someone showed the illustration from earlier is correct for a road that goes straight on from your relative position - whereas the asda turn off isnt in this case. I always go to the inside lane and then the left lane and most people around me seem to as well
