MODERATORS
I've had two close calls with roundabouts. One where someone didn't look before entering and another where some tried to pass me inside the circle when they wanted to exit and I didn't.
As much as I love roundabouts, I agree that some drivers simply have no idea how they work. They stop when they don't need to, and go when they should be yielding. And as you describe, the ones with multiple lanes are even more “confusing”, despite them being quite logical in design and implementation.
Stay safe.
No, these were both in the same, single lane roundabout. And there shouldn't have been any confusion since the roundabout has been there for a while now. It was just drivers being reckless and careless, putting my life in danger by not obeying traffic laws.
Oy, vey! LOL I bet they found a reason to blame you. 😫
