This reminds me of a certain appliance commercial ..."Its the dryer is always the dryer"...., OK Its the DRIVER its always the DRIVER

I tend to try to avoid the roundabouts, but when I need to use one, I am constantly looking left, right, in front, in the mirrors, and I USE TURN SIGNALS. So far I have had only one close call, I was cutoff from someone continuing around when I was getting off. I continue to be amazed at the number of people exiting from the inside roundabout lane to the RIGHT, resident lane, they should know they can go in the visitor lane with their card. This action cutoffs someone in the outside lane going to the resident lane.

Please do not shoot the messenger, just my humble opinion.
