Makes sense to me... I do my best to follow that exact procedure.

One other trick for you folks feeling nervous. From the time you enter the round-about to the time you exit lay on your horn, this should make it safer

And another trick.... NEVER pull out in front a driver with their right blinker on in TV, it may have been on since yesterday.....

How bored am I to comment on a round-about link? When the heck is my tee time anyway
