We both came from the same exit, at the same time(different lanes), which was exactly 180 degrees from the exit we both took

Almost happened me a couple of weeks ago. Exact same scenario. I blared the horn and the man (in the wrong) got out. I told him he was in the lane to turn right so why did he go straight. He said "I can drive wherever the fcuk I want"

I see just last week the council have now put right turn arrows on the road in the right lane. It pis*ses me off no end when I see people drive right up past everyone on the left and then cut ahead at roundabouts. I'm going to buy an old banger of a jeep and clean these fcukers out of it some day!!

I went to them earlier and they told me I don't need to file a report unless the insurance companies ask for one

File your report anyways. Make sure there's a written down report of your description of the accident.

To my shame I killed a family dog once, not my fault but nevertheless, I made absolutely sure I made a Garda report so if anything happened I could say, "hey look, I did say so". End of story, It's solely and absolutely to cover your arse.

Yeah I was on the inside lane the whole time

You are in the right she's crossing into you. She should be going to the eye in that lane

Definitely go and report it anyway !

Her insurers could challenge it and if there's a garde report, it's better to be in your words first.

We never called the guards to the scene, can I go down to them and tell them what happened and find out who was in the right/wrong?

Was this in Galway, and if so, which roundabout?

Yeah Joyce roundabout at the end of Bohermore

She was in the wrong lane and drove into me when I had already begun to exit the roundabout.
It was a single lane exit at 12 o'clock we both pulled off the roundabout at the same time, me in the left, correct, lane and her in the right, incorrect, lane.

The understanding of how to use a roundabout in this country is appalling. Almost every day I see someone completely misuse their indicators on a roundabout. About once a week I see someone indicate left to turn onto a roundabout, the indicate when on the roundabout and then indicate left when they're exiting. It's not unusual to see someone do that when going straight on from the right hand lane either.

It should be a compulsory element of a driving test if a roundabout is available.

That's about once every 5 minutes in Galway!

Oooohhh dodgy to say the least.

If she claims you pulled out when she was taking the exit..... Always give way to traffic an the right and all that....

Hate that! Photograph everything.

I assume she hit you on your left or rear?

Yeah took loads of photos of my car and hers.

No she hit me on the drivers door, she was in the lane for the next exit but turned in to my exit. It's a bit of a dodgy round about so I was actually keeping an eye out for someone in the wrong lane and beeped at her before she hit me hoping she'd stop, but no such luck

These Belgians look good. Think we'll be hammered.

Hope I'm wrong.
