The Sumter County Sheriff's website has a good informative brochure about traffic circles. Get it, read it, and if it confuses you, drive carefully to the station and ask the nice folks there to explain it.
It would be an improvement if all the circles were constructed, striped, and signed consistently too. The Morse circle by the Villages Hospital is a mess. Two lanes of El Camino enter, and exit to one lane of Paige Place. They ought to mark the right lane of El Camino Real as right turn only to Southbound Morse, so the through traffic moves from left lane to center lane in the circle and out across the right lane of the circle to Paige. But do not hold your breath.
Then there is the golf cart traffic trying to cross Morse and El Camino Real. They ought to move the gate arms up to the circle, or put the golf cart crossing below the gate arms for Morse southbound... For northbound Morse, we need gates to protect the west and southbound golf cart traffic. But don't hold your breath. Or do. Aerobic Golf Carting is held every day from 11:30 to 12:30 at the Morse circle by the Villages Hospital.
