Would you do it differently?
Discussion
I was on a roundabout, my route marked in blue below.
An ambulance was on blue lights was approaching on the red route, but stuck in traffic. I stopped on the roundabout to allow traffic out in turn allow the ambulance out. Well that was the plan.
What actually happened is grandma at the front looked confused and went nowhere. The ambulance changed lane and was able to get on the roundabout as the traffic in that lane had used my ‘block’ to get out of the way.
Having my daughter with me who had just passed her theory test I was trying to work out if I helped or hindered. I’m really not sure!

Yes, I'd have continued to follow the rules of the road rather than do something unexpected and cause confusion. If every driver in that scenario had acted unilaterally it could have been chaotic.
Was aware of that, and it’s why I’ve second thought myself. At the time it was not really causing chaos though.Yes, I'd have continued to follow the rules of the road rather than do something unexpected and cause confusion.
