What is a Roundabout?

A roundabout is a circular intersection or junction with a center island and multiple entrance and exit points; the traffic flows in one direction, counterclockwise, and other emerging vehicles need to yield or give the right-of-way to the ongoing traffic.

Rules for Roundabouts

Drivers arriving at a roundabout must slow down and yield to traffic already traveling in the circle.
Be prepared to stop for bicyclists and pedestrians in your path.
Enter the roundabout only when there is space for you to do so.
Use your turn signals to communicate that you will be exiting.
If you miss your exit, drive around the circle again until you can exit safely.
Never pass another vehicle in the roundabout.
Do not stop while driving in the circle.

In roundabouts with more than one lane:

Use the right lane to exit right or proceed straight.
Use the left lane to turn left, make U-turns, or proceed straight.
Enter the roundabout in the proper lane for your next turn to avoid switching lanes in the circle.
