I think some do not fully understand what yield means. It is exactly as you have said. It is the law to allow a vehicle to go first if they are crossing your path. I just do not understand why people can't wait for the driver to cross. It only takes a few seconds. Like most said, there aren't many accidents in the roundabouts. Sounds like a lot of pent up road rage.
