You want to enter a roundabout and leave by the road straight ahead. An ambulance (A) with lights and siren on is approaching in the circulating lane from your left. Which TWO are correct? Select TWO
- Your car (blue) is about to enter the roundabout
- You plan to exit on the road opposite
- Ambulance (A) is approaching in the circulating lane from the left with lights and siren on
💡 Hint
When entering a roundabout, you must drive slowly or make a temporary stop and yield to vehicles already circulating (Article 25-2(2) of the Road Traffic Act). A roundabout is also an intersection, so the duty when an emergency vehicle approaches (Article 29(4)) applies as it is.
Answer: ④, ⑤
Explanation
When entering a roundabout you must drive slowly or make a temporary stop and yield to vehicles already circulating (Road Traffic Act Article 25-2(2)). Moreover, when an emergency vehicle approaches at or near an intersection you must stay clear and stop temporarily (Article 29(4)), so stop at the entry and enter after A has passed. Entering and stopping inside the roundabout would block the ambulance.
