Doug is making a joke. I was the one who brought up the clock face analogy because that is the easiest wand clearest way to understand what we are talking about. I hear people talking about making left hand turns out of the round-a-bouts and I and I think many of us are confused.

So yes, think of a round-a-bout as a clock face. Where you enter is 6:00 the first exist is 3:00 the second exit is 12:00 and the third exit is 9:00.

Problems can arise when cars are entering the round-a-bout from different point even when everyone is obeying the rules.
