If you are in the right hand lane, you need to move to the left hand lane before you get into the round-a-bout or move over where the dashed lines are within the round-about.

I have a problem almost every week, where I enter a round-a-bout at 6:00 in the left lane intending to exit at 9:00. The problem occurs when I exit, I need to get into the right hand lane to go through the resident gate. sometimes cars are entering in the right hand lane right behind me and I have to change lanes. I am very aware of this always just super careful.

What I was pointing out is that we can have a problem even when all parties are following the rules.
Residents can enter through either lane.
