Tour Scotland Travel Video Summer Drive East On A90 To Swallow Hotel Roundabout Dundee

Tour Scotland travel video of a Summer road trip drive East on the A90 road from Perthshire, to the Swallow Hotel roundabout on visit to the city of Dundee, Scotland. This A90 Scottish road originates in Edinburgh, it the travels west and over the Forth Road Bridge, before turning into the M90 motorway. At Perth, the M90 again becomes the A90, now running north east to Dundee and through the Kingsway road system. It then passes Forfar, Brechin, Stracathro, the site of an ancient Roman Camp, Stonehaven, Bridge of Muchalls, where the Burn of Muchalls flows under, near Muchalls Castle, near Saint Ternan's Church, Newtonhill, Portlethen, from there through the city of Aberdeen, crossing the Ythan Estuary, on to Peterhead on its way to Fraserburgh. Modern roundabouts are commonplace throughout the world. Half of the world's roundabouts are in France, although the United Kingdom has more as a proportion of the road than any other country. A crucial part of driving roundabouts is being prepared as you approach them and knowing where you're going and which lane you'll need to be in. Keep a look out for vulnerable road users including cyclists, motorcyclists and horse riders. Pedestrian crossings can also be found near the entrances or exits of a roundabout. If the roundabout is clear then make sure you go, don't hesitate. Try to anticipate where other drivers are going that are already on the roundabout. Watch the other vehicles position, speed and angle.
