Explanation
A roundabout is an intersection with traffic going counterclockwise around a center island. Vehicles waiting to enter must yield the right-of-way to traffic already circulating in the roundabout. When approaching, slow down and yield to pedestrians and bicyclists crossing the road. Inside the roundabout, always drive around the circle to the right, keeping the center island on your left. Keep moving, do not stop or pass, and watch for signs and lane markings that guide you. If you need to turn left, enter by turning right and continue driving around the circle until you reach the exit for your left turn.
