Hi,
as cars now have to give priority at the junction to the pedestrians, should car leaving the roundabout to give priority to pedestrian too? My understanding is that roundabout is a junction too.

Thanks. So - as I am living very close to busy roundabout in London, how I could ask council/police to enforce this? Nothing changed since introducing new rules and I still have to wait all drivers exit/enter roundabout.

Actual said:
Rule 187
In all cases watch out for and give plenty of room to
pedestrians who may be crossing the approach and exit roads
Right, so if the car approaches the roundabout fast, I have to wait (as a pedestrian) because he might choose my exit, right?
