Roundabouts work exactly the same way. Those that can't follow those simple rules are probably a problem any where they drive.
Exactly! Let's be honest here....knowing HOW to drive is not a requirement to get a drivers license anymore... The folks that can't figure out a roundabout are also the same people running stop signs, hanging over in the cart lane, turning right on a red light without stopping, cruising [sometimes below the speed limit] in the left lane...you name it.

Just saying.....
