Remember too, the person IN the roundabout has the right away. I saw someone pull out into a roundabout today and almost hit a car in the roundabout. Yield means Yield.
You're right that it's not that hard. I've only driven through the RAB's a couple time since moving down here. Before doing so I reviewed the onlline how-to documentation and went through the different options until I was fully familiar with the where I should be. The only problem I had was in remembering and timing the turn signal for the exit from the left lane on the first go around. New people aught to do the same thing and those who think they know without checking first as soon as they can.

BTW, that person that pulled out and almost hit a car probably things "Yeald? Why do they put up a sign telling me that my savings account has a lousy yeald?"
