I see two (so about 25%). There is possibly a third but I'm giving that guy the benefit of the doubt.

Some people apparently do not see the need to stay in one land and not cross solid line

How do we know the alleged violations aren't drivers changing lanes in preparation to leave the round about?

Perhaps because if they were to leave the roundabout where they are changing lanes they would end up in the grass.
And no, we don't know that they didn't both have a tire blow out and were struggling to regain control of their vehicles at just the instant the photograph was taken.

The red one on the yellow lines is obviously in the wrong—and he is just past an exit. The white one is just past an exit, the red one NOT on a yellow line is straddling the center, which he couldn’t be doing because he should have gone to the right lane (yellow lines) if he was already in the roundabout. If he just entered, he is still straddling both lanes. So, he is wrong too.
I would love to go a day and NOT see someone change lanes in a roundabout (and I don’t mean exiting). Just one day.

Do not change lanes to leave the roudabout. outer lane takes the right exit lane. Inner lane takes the left exit lane.

The left exit lane? No wonder we have so many drivers that don’t know how to navigate the roundabouts. To exit a roundabout you have to exit right at some point and this is where the problems start.
The inner lane can never make the 1st right but can make the 2nd or 3rd right. The outer lane can take the 1st or 2nd right exit, never ever the 3rd exit. How basic can you get and hundreds can’t follow this even when every roundabout has huge signs that show exactly this.
On top of this, some roundabouts have solid white lines for the 1st exit and you get people crossing these so the outer lane they are in can make the 2nd exit.
This happens all year long with full time residents and construction workers

The red one NOT on a yellow line *could* be taking a straight path from the narrowed section to the exit he seems to be aiming for. He would not be interfering with any traffic since there could be no one next to him in the narrowed section and anyone entering would yield to him. Additionally, there does not appear to be any lane marking in that area so there are apparently no lanes to cross.
Now, if he *did* just enter from the left lane then he is either aimed for the first exit or the outside lane of the circle, both of which are wrong.

If you are never to change lanes someone in the inside lines would drive in circles endlessly.

You might want to re-think that

LOL, Remember they’re retirees or like some others say, they have 1 ft. in their grave. Just be careful some people get really confused just driving!

There are 4 possible exits to use in the Villages’ round-a-bouts. When entering a roundabout you should know which exit you’ll be using; the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, or 4th. If you need the 1st or 2nd exit you enter the round-a-bout in the right lane. If you need the 3rd or 4th exit you enter the round-a-bout in left lane. No need to ever exchange lanes in the round-a-bout, ever.

Such a great picture keeping your record of providing us with great photos.
Unfortunate that it unleashed a firestorm of know it all posters……………….

Yes, & if you miss the 3rd or 4th exit, just go around a 2nd time or as many times as you need to get off. You’re exactly right, but some people think if they miss it the first time they must think it’s the end of the world!

First of all, you're not going to be able to see a turn signal from this angle.
But secondly, is it mandatory that you use a turn signal when exiting a round about?
