Not all that simple. If you enter the inside lane at 6:00 and are going to take the 2nd exit and someone enters the outside lane at 3:00 and wants to take their second exit, they are going to be on your right when you want to turn right. You'd better be aware that they are there and be very careful before exiting the round about.
