Vehicles entering or exiting a roundabout:

Must yield to pedestrians and bicyclists crossing the roadway.
May pass other vehicles, as long as they signal when changing lanes.
Must always come to a complete stop.
Have the right-of-way.
Explanation

Always yield to pedestrians and bicyclists in crosswalks both when entering and exiting a roundabout. When approaching a roundabout, you must yield to all traffic already circulating within it (typically coming from your left), as indicated by the "Yield" signs posted at the entrance. Approach at a reduced speed and keep your speed low to merge and navigate safely. Do not stop or pass other vehicles while in the roundabout, and use your turn signal when exiting.
