Pay attention at roadworks

The roadworks at this roundabout have been going on a while now, with cones/lanes etc changing as they go.

This is a good reason in my opinion to stick to the 30 limit (or lower) to give yourself time to read the signs through the roadworks.

I’m undecided if this Audi was just trying to get ahead or if they missed/ignored the sign saying the left lane was left turn only.

Having been watching him in the mirrors for the last half mile I had a feeling I would need to keep an eye on him. Good job I did, meant I could react to him getting lanes wrong and leave space….

So by keeping alert and frequently looking at mirrors all around I could anticipate the Audi drivers action/lack of observation and avoid a crash.

Keep checking your mirrors as you drive folks, you could save yourself a lot of problems caused by mistakes / aggression of other drivers.

Keep scanning your surroundings, even more so at roadworks.
