Some people refer to a traffic circle as an intersection.
Thus the 1st exit is the same as making a right hand turn and you would be in the right lane to do so.
The 2nd exit is the same as going straight and continuing on the same road way. Thus if you have 2 lanes, both could go straight with each lane exiting from the same lane in which they entered.
The 3rd exit is the same as making a left turn. So you would need to enter in the inside lane, just as you would at a regular intersection. You would also exit from the inside lane. You never change lanes while inside a traffic circle.
ALL ENTERING TRAFFIC HAVE A YIELD SIGN and MUST YIELD TO
ALL CARS THAT ARE ALREADY IN THE TRAFFIC CIRCLE.
This explains how a person makes a left hand turn inside a traffic circle. (It is by using the 3rd exit from which you entered the circle)
So, yes, YOU ARE CORRECT about continuous right turns, It is just that you need to enter AND exit in the proper lane according to the exit you plan to use.
