Default Old roundabouts

Not even close....There are many older multi-lane (with striping) in the USA
Oldest Traffic Circle - Historic Towns Of America.

Two lane (or even 3-lane) roundabouts (traffic circles) require you to YIELD or STOP prior to entering the circle. Once inside, watch left and right...Go around again if you miss your turn-out. It's a nice spin!
