Spiral roundabouts 

I’ve been driving for 20yrs and I still can’t cope with nightmare roundabouts like this! I’m thinking of having more driving lessons.

this was so useful. Hate those roundabouts

I find once you've done one multiple times you just seem to "know" what lanes to be in, what can be tricky is a unfamiliar spiral at night or in the wet when the road markings are almost invisible

Some of the best vids I’ve watched on spiral roundabouts! Please do more of these!!

Lovely useful video on spiral round abouts

This is the only video that helped me to understand spiral roundabout properly!

Passed my test today with 7 minors which I thought wasn’t bad, your videos really helped and you are a whopping driving instructor thanks for the vids

I passed my driving test this morning ,I ‘d like to thank you very much indeed for all your helpful videos .

Passed test today with 2 minors thank you for all your help

Cheers James, I find spiral roundabouts a pain in the you know what!!!. I avoid them at all costs. I will now try them at a quiet time following what you said

My test is in Tuesday you have helped me loads I don’t like roundabout but finally got them with your help

Really excellent use of repetition. Thank you so much. Learned a lot.

Travis you are a Maestro, God bless you.

test is tomorrow afternoon but feel much more relaxed after seeing your videos. Travis you are a hero !:)

As a German who drove their car to the UK and is staying here for a few months I immediately came across an even scarier spiral next to my current home. It has 7 exits and you approach it on a maximum of 3 lanes, but the roundabout has 5 lanes at most times. Firstly I don't know what lane to take when approaching, then I don't know what lane to go on inside (at some exits 1 lane will come off, at others 2 will come off or none at all, making it a guessing game) and when I realise I'm on the wrong lane I can't usually do anything different from taking a wrong exit that elongates my journey for at least 5 minutes as all exits go to carriageways or motorways. And then there are traffic lights in the roundabouts that make me wonder why they didn't simply build a regular intersection instead, would have been easier and faster for nearly everyone.

Plymouth has a lot of spiral roundabouts and with heavy traffic it's sometimes impossible to see the road markings, so there's often last-second lane changing going on. You need eyes in the back of your head!

Thank you sir

Thank you.👍

Wow. Lots of tips there, it's hard to take it all in on a lesson. Thanks

Hi Travis. So thankful you've got a video on this. I struggled with this during my driving lessons as I keep getting confused. My instructor gave me a printed image copy of the spiral roundabout (the one I am struggling with) which he got from Google Maps to get myself familiarise as this particular roundabout will definitely be in the test route as the testing centre in my area are a few blocks from it. My test is booked next month. I have been binge-watching your videos. Thanks for all the helpful tips for a learner like me.

I haven't done spiral roundabouts yet. This video was helpful to understand the theory behind them but will have to wait and see how it goes in practice...

Thank you for your videos they helped me a lot i passed today with 0 minors for the first time! i can’t believe it i am so happyyyyyy! good luck everyone!

You're a great person. Thank you so much 👍😄😄🌼

Very useful video. Thanks.. These spiral roundabouts are very confusing indeed. Its difficult knowing which lane to be in when guided by GPS. But I am glad to say, driving for the first time in UK I had difficulty with only some of them..

You are amazing sir I have been watching your videos every day Really helpful Big thanks for sharing

i have passed my test today..i have been watching all of ur videos n that gave me alot of confidence..thanx

I literally did this route on the roundabout today, my test is the 14th June. Before that I was practising going straight via the Roman roundabout, as if that wasn't hard enough! I finally got that hang of that route, and then my instructor told me today to try going right on this roundabout, and it totally threw me. Finding you video has literally saved me, as I can now process what I have to do much better, thanks so much for putting out great information!

Good info , tks . I think if you know where you are going and familiarity makes it a lot better , when unfamiliar i find to take more time and look well ahead helps . I found your tips useful tks .

I watched many of your vedios n they are just amazing...very informative n you got very nice way of illustrating things n removing confusions...Thank you very much n please keep on posting vedios as they really really help...thanks again

Very helpful

It was very helpful . Thank you so much.

it helped a lot. thank you

So so helpful;!

Hi Travis. I live quite close to here (in Leighton Buzzard). The Kelly's Kitchen roundabout as you go into Bletchley (about 4 miles south east of that IKEA roundabout) is a really tricky one. It always makes me super nervous.

Brilliant video. Cheers Travis！

thanks very much its agood drive

Very good mate thankyou

very helpful thank you :)

I find spiral roundabouts more logical than normal, because the lane marking literally directs you to your destination. No need to worry about changing lane (though the option is still there of course). If they were standardized and the highway code rules were changed slightly, maybe there's also an argument to be made that people who are entering the roundabout don't need to give way if the car already on the roundabout is in a different more inner lane to the one you're intending to go on?

These ones kill me off.. Help!

No matter how many times you repeat it. I don’t understand the spiral roundabouts which is very very very frustrating and more as a learner.😢

Hi! That's me once again following your advise. I can see here an IKEA very clearly. But where's the Marshall Amplification plant?! ))

Is it possible to do a roundabout with 4+ lanes possibly with on the approach also any advise for super busy times when said roundabouts the marking are covered by cars? Our local big island like this is full of people just using whichever lane is noving quickest n jumping across. I passed in the summer and still darent go near this island unless just turning left 😊

Quite easy when you think about it. I've got one near my area but with traffic lights so alot easier because it's slower.

Here is where i get confuse by the dash Line when it joins up 5:59 it' look's like it's pointing straight-ahead.

So at 3.50 was the mixer truck in the wrong lane on approach, as he took the same exit as you at the following roundabout, ie coukd you have taken that lane also.

Do you indicate as you go round say if you came in at 6 and planned to go off at 3. Or do you just stay in lane and indicate left just as you come to your exit. Cheers.

👍

Have my test in a weeks time, what advice would you give to help prepare and feel confident on the day

Clever clog never looked back once when reversing

Get up to. Queensland

I’m a learner but isn’t singling at 5:58 before passing the exit that was right towards you wrong and misleading? It could have indicated to other road users that your existing that exit that was coming towards you on the right before you’ve reached your exit.

I just get complete brain fog with spiral roundabouts.

Hi Travis. That white car cutting in front of that white van at 8min into the video on the roundabout. Was that an error? Looks like it to me.

Hi at 3.58 you were on the middle lane that shows you need to go straight but you took left. I didnt understand. Please help me

Hey travis at 5:59 why did you signal early before 2 nd exit ?

Yo dev driving. Great haha.

Explain for yourself dude :))) in this way old man, you make dizzy anyone (coming off Irish)

Thank you sir
