The OP description very apt and the suggestion of using turn signals prudent and something I do on a continuum .

Unfortunately not all residents are on TOTV and if they not all take heed and/or simply forget such admonishments

From the standpoint of signal use, I treat every round-a-bout as if it were a four corner intersection so that those vehicles around me know if I intend to exit or enter the circle. Unfortunately as respects signals apparently many residents buy cars not equipped with signals. I suppose by foregoing this feature they save money on their purchase
