It's an endless topic I believe. Roundabouts are as safe as the drivers know what to do. DISZIPLIN is the word behind. I was in Australia recently and came through more roundabout I could imagine. No problem at all even they driving opposite to us (which was a little problem for me at the beginning). Amazing was and is their driver's discipline. Honking? For what? Never I heard one, even when the traffic was slowing down because of very slow reacting drivers.
Their motto is just simple: I am using the same street, so everybody have the same right. I can't add anything to that.
