Default The key to using the roundabouts

for me is to make sure that there are no cars in the roundabout and that there is sufficient time and room to allow for those coming in from the left, regardless of which lane they are in. When turning at the 3rd exit, I check for the cars coming into the roundabout at the second exit, signal my intention and move into the right lane. If I am turning at the second exit, I do my best to be in the right lane as that eliminates the problem of being T-boned. Perhaps I will have more of a challenge in March, as we have always been in TV for April/May and Sept/Nov. and traffic may be lighter in those months.
