We can argue what clear to go in a roundabout means. I am okay with that. I stated, like you, I would not make the right hand turn. Too many drivers switching lanes. But, some drivers make that choice.

However, No way are you allowed to cut someone off on a side street. I don't care how you got to that street. If a car is ahead of you, you yield!

the funny thing is...I am arguing this with you! I am certain neither one of us would ever cut anyone off, can we just agree on that? Move on? Why are we debating things other people do?
I love it! Are we talking apples and oranges here? It sounds like you are talking about someone changing lanes and cutting someone off AFTER they exited the RB and are approaching the gates. That would be ridiculous, I agree with you.

The post by Winnie stated he was ENTERING the RB because the lane he was taking (right lane) was clear, although a vehicle was approaching in the inner lane. He was "cut off" when the truck too the same exit. In that scenario he was wrong for entering the RB in the first place

Do two rights make a bigger right?????
