Was this my fault (Roundabout) Bike vs Cager

[Lipsmoker]

So the sun came out today so i decided to go up to Parbold on my 125...

There is a Mini roundabout near the local tescos which i have to get across.. i'm wanting to go straight so i approach and obviously knowing it's give way to the right i see a car across the roundabout wanting to turn right but she's stopped and i'm rolling at 10mph so i go.. The she cuts right across with no indicator and beeps at me?! I know for sure if she went the right way around the roundabout i would have been clear. Should i have stopped completely? I got told off on my CBT for hesitation.

I know for sure i would have made it.

Instead i had a swerve around her car and almost hit the curb (green line) she stopped in the middle of the roundabout swearing i just rode off as i didn't know where i stood.

Was a good ride out too.. This happened 2 mins from my house and was on the way home.

Assuming that the car is red then she shouldn't have cut over the mini-roundabout - the highway code is very clear about that, but as is often said on here it doesn't matter how right you are when you are lying in a heap on the road!

She's at fault as you were established on roundabout, plus she has cut across and not used it correctly as per highway code.

I would say you where in the right, if there was plenty of room for you to get out safely and across which there was as the car wasn't indicating, the car should have indicated that is one thing i hate PEOPLE NOT FUCKING INDICATING!! i do it all the time even when its just me on the road, this could lead to the argument you should have given way just incase but technicly the cage driver was in the wrong.

I think it's worth pointing out that had she hit you, you would need some very credible witnesses to back your story in order to shift the blame onto her.

I hate mini roundabouts with a passion & whatever I'm riding/driving I always ensure anything else has committed to an exit before I carry on.

You're going straight on, she's making a right turn.

Normally you would have to give way to traffic coming from the right but here she is not indicating and she is cutting across the roundabout; she was in the wrong because she did not make the turn correctly.

Its her fault, but you shouldnt have went. Most people cut mini-roundabouts because of the lack of space.
Being hesitant to stop and check isnt always a bad thing.

When i sit down and think about it...

I blame myself.. for not waiting.. and expecting it to happen.
Though all these little near misses we all have make a better rider out of us all.

After all every car driver is out to kill you... Right?

I had just got back from a "hot ride" (NSL) and it's stupid how i can have some fun in the lanes and be perfectly fine but as soon as i get around cagers at 15mph i'm almost getting Plummeted into.

As pointed out by others, many mini-roundabouts are difficult (if not impossible) to go around without encroaching onto the painted area. I always assume that the blob of paint is there simply to indicate who would have priority if the mini-roundabout was a full sized one.
I therefore hold you, Lipsmoker, responsible for the near mishap.
I could of course be totally wrong and I expect that many peoples will gleefully correct me if I am.

i thought you had to be in 1st gear slow riding on all mini roundabouts?
that would have saved you from the crash.
but it was definitely the car drivers fault if you was on the roundabout first
