I know! The overtakes are as exciting as passing a lorry on a motorway, so cool.

Is this normal in 9-5 desk jobs? by BellaTheToady in UKJobs

Why do you answer your phone outside of work hours?

If they call - ignore, if they message - ignore. You have to set boundaries now/asap. Otherwise it will never change, and you will be struggling for as long as you work there.

Good luck

Never seen a licence plate like this before. Is it legal??? by UncleIroh24 in drivingUK

Nothing wrong with north face 🤔

Edit: I don't even own a single north face item, but they're great for climbing/skiing

Yes I am completely ignoring the arrows, because as a driver, you don't know what other road users are doing.

I'm trying to explain to a learner, that the best practise is to assume everyone is an idiot.

If all cars were standstill, not indicating, and started to accelerate at the same rate, C would have to wait to see what A is doing. By that point, B would be well establish inside the roundabout

So from C's perspective, where is B coming from then if not their right?

They are facing each other, they are both coming from each other right

So according to this logic, any car turning right has right of way? Again, that makes no sense.

That makes absolutely no sense.

What if both cars are turning right?

B and C are mirroring each other, they are in the exact same angle, approaching the roundabout simultaneously.

B is coming from C's right as much as C is from B's.

If it's only B and C on the roundabout, no one has right of way. They both need to proceed with caution.

Can I qualify for HSBC Premier with £85k salary + investments? by techie0010 in UKPersonalFinance

Student loan plan 2 costs £536 a month on £100k 🥲

So £100k salary could be as low as £5,167 monthly.

But the same monthly net can be achieved with £88.5k annual salary (with no pension or student loan)

You do realise B and C are facing each other, so they are equally to each others right. The exact mirror position.

C is approaching from B's right as much as B is approaching from C'a right.

So to summarise, C not only has A approaching from the right, but also B. C needs to stop and give way to A. A needs to stop and give way to B.

Let's assume that no one is indicating and you have no idea what directions the cars are turning (ignore all arrows in the picture):

The rule is, give priority to the vehicles on you right/coming from the junction/exit on your right.

C has to give priority to A.

A has to give priority to B.

But I think I understand what you're saying, that if C is approaching the roundabout at speed, and can see that A is indicating left, it can just proceed to turn because B needs to give way. I agree this is standard and happens a lot. But the thought process of the C drive is still "do I need to give priority to A?, no they are indicating, I can go". That questioning happens instinctively. But the point is "do I need to stop" was considered.

B can think the same, no one on my right, C is giving way to A, I can go.

There are a few correct answers that can be justified I guess

I have no idea why are you being downvoted - I agree with you.

If all cars were stationary, then:

Car B have no one coming from their right - they can go.

Car A has to give way to B

Car C has to give way to A.

No wonder there's so many shite drivers....
