I noticed that Driver B was going slower than I expected, but Driver A was not trying to overtake him. In fact, Driver A stayed a little behind Driver B.
Then Driver B suddenly cut right in front of Driver A, probably because he wanted to turn into Soaring Eagle. Driver A stopped and Driver B missed him by about a foot.
Then Driver A proceeded going north on Morse. I doubt Driver B even knew he almost got t-boned and he would have been totally at fault.
I applaud Driver A for preventing an accident. Maybe he could sense that Driver B did not know what he was doing, so Driver A had the sense to hold back just in case Driver B did something very stupid. I hope I can be that smart when I grow up.

Reality of roundabouts regular posted subject. The number of people who know the rules are few. The number of people that will follow the rules are less.
I will not drive along side anyone anywhere if, I can avoid it. Even more so in a roundabout.
Too many are not aware. Car controls are the gas, the brake and most important your brain.
