I would be interested in what you would suggest to make the signs more clear. To me, they show two lanes entering the roundabout and show what each lane can do. So, you have to be in the correct lane as you enter in order to go where you desire coming out of the roundabout.

Besides being in the correct lane, the other critical factor in navigating the roundabouts is to NEVER enter if there is traffic in either lane approaching you. Just because the outside lane is clear doesn't make it OK to enter into that lane.
