I almost always use the outside lane when going thru a roundabout unless I am going 3/4 of the way around.

And I honk at them when they do that. And I keep honking until they stop.

If I am in the inside lane, then I am planning to cut across the outside lane to exit the roundabout and I need for the outside lane to be open.

However, if the person in the outside lane keeps going, then I keep honking, but I stop and let them go.

That happened to us when we were driving north on Morse and wanted to turn left onto Stillwater. I was going 3/4 of the way around the roundabout, but a driver going south on Morse in the outside lane did not stop for me. I stopped in the inside lane and kept honking at him, but he just drove on thru the roundabout. He probably did not even realize I was honking at him.

The next week I saw that happen to someone else at the same roundabout.
