      As I said in my initial comment, the right lane is known and referred to as the overtaking lane because according to the law - that is what you're supposed to use it for.
      Hence the term, drive left pass right.
      So when he said that he was in the overtaking lane, he was not saying that he was going to overtake in an intersection, he is saying that he was using the RIGHT lane when the accident happened in the intersection.

    I really feel for the bloke and he seems like a decent guy, but when he said he doesn't have much luck with cars, he has to look at his part to play.
    Regarding the accident on the roundabout, I would always hold back if there's a lorry knowing full well that they may need to cut across the lanes, regardless of the size of the roundabout.
    The lorry driver may have been at fault, but the chap could have been savvy and be cautious and saved himself the heartbreak.
