If another car, bicycle rider or landscape laborer is stopped, parked or just standing in a roundabout and this almost causes you to have an accident (and be killed??), then I must say you were most likely driving TOO FAST, especially inside a roundabout.

TV drivers: drive defensive, slow down (speed kills), anticipate dangerous situations, always watch out for the other guy, and be safe!
