If drivers follow the rules, the roundabouts pose no problems. If drivers do not follow the rules then all bets are off whether the drivers are in a roundabout or simply driving down Pinellas Ave.
I read these posts and people are constantly complaining about getting cut off. If a vehicle is in front of you and needs to cross your path, you slow down and allow them. That is the rule. They are not ruining your day by being a jerk. I really wish drivers would understand this.

Two cars ABSOLUTELY can arrive at a roundabout at the same time. If you are heading straight thru and see a vehicle on the right side exit, you do not automatically make that driver wait while you sail through. Rule of traffic: when two vehicles enter an intersection at the same time, the person on the right goes first. In a roundabout, you reduce your speed and allow them to cross your path. This keeps traffic moving FOR EVERYONE
