I could see Tudor that you were not happy at the motorist beeping you, and goes to show the ignorance of some motorists. But remember they are no better than you, just treat them with the contempt that they deserve. Anyway nice drive. I have not had to travel that sort of distance for along time so it was a form of education for me. And remember you are the ultimate professional.
Interesting : I am always impressed by these multilane roundabouts, sometimes spiral ones. I am going to Yorkshire in about a month : this is an other rehearsal for me, thank you.
My absolute nightmare that tunnel and bridge , spent many weeks practicing going over it , the worst part for me the big traffic light roundabout 😅 . Cheers for the video x
Thanks for watching. Yeah traffic lights on roundabout. Confusing at the best of times and I often wonder if they should only be on at peak congestion times 🤷🏻♂️
Tudor, we all have the problem of taking the wrong lane due to unfamiliarity and poor signage. The Audi driver ought to have made it a non event. Though I think he/she anticipated an indiscretion by holding back 🤔 Otherwise a fairly good run (almost no congestion both directions) through the tunnel and back over the bridge. 👍 M25 never the best of journeys. Well done you 😉
Thanks John. Yeah it’s easy to find yourself in the wrong lane. Lesson learned is that we all need to give and take. It teaches me more patience when I’m behind other drivers who appear to be lost. Thank you for the coffees 👍☕️☕️☕️
The thing I find with roundabouts is the approaching lanes tell you one thing and then as soon as you’re on the roundabout, the priority changes and you find yourself in the wrong lane. It’s ok if you know the route but if it’s new to you, then…well.
You shouldn't have to pay the toll at all, that was written into state law before it's construction. Once the building costs were paid off, which they were in the 90's, it reverted to public ownership & *SHOULD* have become free.... 🤔

Did this journey daily for over 4 years when I worked in Essex
Me too! I worked 3 years at HMRC in Southend and would drive it daily from Kent!

They can catch you out.

Please drive in the Cardiff Bay Tunnel in Cardiff Bay, Wales.
Next time I’m in south Wales I’ll certainly do it!
@@drivewithcare_uk thanks.
@@drivewithcare_uk please do !

No pop pops this time!
Good lesson in roundabout etiquette/ knowledge- even us Brits can get confused/ get in the wrong lane sometimes !!
Nope. No one showing off this time 🤣
There are two roundabouts I encounter on my travels one in Leicester and one in Northampton I dread them both. It happens!! 🤷🏻♀️

But of course once any government realised they have a cash-cow in their hands, their budgets can’t work without keeping it on.
@drivewithcare_uk
Amazing how they can bend rules & laws for themselves but not for us.... 🤔
