A driver obviously needs to be aware of other cars around him and sometimes we need to make a decision on whether to go in front of a car or slow down and let that car pass. These decisions are made all the time whether or not you're in a round a bout.
Dr. I think you meant right lane if you enter the round about at 6:00 and exit at 3:00. Studies do show the round abouts are efficient.
