Roundabout Question

[Alim]

My relative's car met with an accident at the roundabout near Tuas Flover. Before turning into it, there were 3 lanes. He was at the CENTRE LANE and there were 2 Lorries, one on his LEFT & the other on his RIGHT. When it was clear to go, both Lorries turn into the Roundabout crushed his car's bonnet (RIGHT Lorry cut LEFT, LEFT Lorry cut RIGHT). Who has the right of way since there are no lane markings in the roundabout and who's at fault? I have asked many people and all got different answers.

Really the case of 'unlucky' when you meet these big truckies..

 

Since you said no lane marking then its hard to justify anything.

i dun think there's right of way...cars can go when their lane are clear...but u mentioned no lane marking...so i supposed drivers use initiative and ur relative was unlucky

[Alim]

He is the "gei si lai" type of driver and in some ways he deserve it. Insurance company still fighting the case, so I am curious to know from you guys think of the case.

I travelled there many times liao.

 

The roundabout is good for two lanes, vehicles travel either outer or inner lane. Entering the round about is also two lanes only. Not three lanes lah.
