Sure, if you miss your exit, just go around again. The guys who get into that left lane are in a hurry & want to pass the slowpokes in the right lane. Lane changing is the cause of most of the accidents in the roundabouts.

No, the cause for most close calls and accidents is people who use the outside lane as you do. When you use the outside lane to make a 270 degree or U turn you will be crossing right into the path of those who are following the established rules. You may not agree with the rules and they may be counter-intuitive, but they are the rules. Those who don't follow the rules will be at fault if an accident occurs.
