my driving tester back in te 60's said if a man has his indicator to

I said 'with care, possibly'

"You pass".

If he's forgotten to cancel it, any collision is caused by him. You're
free to brake when you realise he's lying to you, but it's stupid to wait
for the 1 in 1000 chance that he's an idiot. Let HIM perform the

avoid every single fool on the road, they'll continue to be fools.

I never believe left-indicators, since I was once at a T-junction, a car
came along from my right indicating left, but went strsight across in front
of me to stop on the main road on my left to set down a passenger! Anyway,
the rule at roundabouts is to give way to cars on your right.

You really need to read the Highway Code. A nearside indicator is the
correct signal to show when exiting a roundabout regardless of how
far round the roundabout you have driven.

The highway code is only a guide and often wrong.

If I turn right at something like this, I indicate left to tell people
coming from where I'm exiting that I've finished my right turn and am
not
going right round:
https://goo.gl/maps/uZrwFGZF1BF2

But at a mini roundabout, indicating left to go straight ahead is simply
going to mislead other drivers, as there's too short a time between each
exit. Barely enough time for one flash. If you go straight ahead, you
tell everyone so by not indicating at all, just as you would at a
crossroads.

Are you one of those IAM type folk who indicate right to pass a parked
car? I've actually seen a pedestrian cross the road in front of them
thinking they're turning right into a side road. Never indicate unless
it's clear what you mean.

It wasn't the nearside indication that was wrong, it was that he
started to indicate far, far too early, he should have shown no
indicators until he had passed the exit where the white van joined.

No, he left it on.

But whatever the reason, his indicator said he was going left, which he
didn't.

Isn't that a one-way street you're coming out of, and maybe a no-entry
sign
so the accused car couldn't have turned into your road anyway?

No, it's a mini roundabout with three normal two way roads. What made you
think otherwise?

Besides, even if it was a one way road, he shouldn't indicate into it.

Probably your camera making it look as if the road was only wide enough for
one car, and cross-hatching to your right.

The Highway Code specifically states not to rely on other cars'
indicators, but to wait for clear signs they are actually turning.

In this case, the van driver indicated that he was about to exit the
roundabout, which he did. Just not the exit the crackpot erroneously
thought he was going to take.

This is the second video the crackpot has posted of his own atrocious

Then it's contradictory, because it also says to use your indicators. Why use something other people are supposed to ignore?

Meanwhile in the real world everyone pays attention to indicators. I can't remember the last time I turned left and the person pulling out didn't believe me.

In this case, the van driver indicated that he was about to exit the

Van? The van was in front of me and indicated properly. I'm talking about the car going from my right to my left.

Not a valid cross-section of society. I can see clearly from my driving every day that 99.99% of people indicate correctly, and 99.99% of people will assume a left indicator means left. Hell, I've sometimes turned right at a roundabout and my stupid Renault indicator has cancelled. I see someone pulling in front of me and slow down to let them go first, as I was no longer indicating right.

You believe wrong. What you saw was the output from my cheap camera which often loses the date and time because the battery only lasts about 20 seconds after the ignition goes off. If I've made several short journeys, the battery goes flat before the time it would switch off from a timeout. I don't bother resetting the clock.

Oddly enough, if they are heading your way and are on the roundabout
already, they are on your right.

Is there something in Australian beer?

I've been told by people who take the highway code too seriously that the rule is the same for the UK - give way to vehicles already on the roundabout. I've been a passenger in a car driven by such a person, who pulled out in front of a car turning right at a mini roundabout and caused the other car to slam on his brakes. My driver's words were "he wasn't on the roundabout when I entered it". Cars go at different speeds, you should give way to those on your right if they are going to end up in the same position as yourself.

The insurance company would have apportioned all the blame on you. The
dash cam footage proves this is so.

I agree - by the time he got to the dotted line, the indicating car was
almost upon him. However there's a date/time display on his video saying
27/01/13 21:06:18 (which is a Sunday). It must be wrong as it would be after
dark at that time in Scotland, so not very good as evidence. For extra
amusement, I have found the Google Streetview location:

Doesn't change the fact that the car driver LIED about his direction of travel.

Timestamp on a video camera is irrelevant. All it shows is the time the clock is set to.

Why is that amusing? It shows nothing over what my camera did.
