(linia) prowadząca do MOP

About 1 mile in advance of a service area, a sign may inform drivers of the availability of services ahead, including the names of the operators. It will normally show the next two services, and include services on other motorways if the junctions with those motorways are reached before the second service area. Where the first services are located at a junction, this sign is likely to be used about 2 miles in advance; the word "Services" may be added to the junction direction signs as an exit destination - http://www.ukmotorists.com/motorway_signs.asp

(w celu skręcenie/zjechania) na stację benzynową/miejce obsługi podróżnych

Services to częste określenie 'service station'.

Samochód osobowy jechał lewym pasem na rondzie, prawdopodobnie przeznaczonym jedynie dla tych zjeżdżających na stację; ciężarówka była na pasie środkowym (jechała dalej prosto). Kierująca samochodem zapewne NIE zjechała jak powinna była tylko kontynuowała dalej na rondzie i zahaczyła o naszą ciężarówkę.
