But that's besides the point. While the circle works similar to a 4-way intersection, it is not. The intersecting roads have yield signs, not stop signs or stop lights. Traffic is free to enter the RB without stopping but that traffic MUST YIELD to ALL traffic already in the RB. Don't like it? Don't agree with it? Doesn't change how a RB works.

not suggesting anything but Florida law states you can make a right on red when clear to do so.
I was using that as an example. An entering driver into a roundabout needs to wait until it is clear to proceed. Nothing more! If it is clear to make a right hand turn, you did it without hitting anyone or cutting anyone off, no driver behind you can cut you off on the side street. The driver behind must wait until it is clear to pass you.
