In my scenario, there were no cars in the circle. Two cars entered at the same time from different points. If a car is on your right and you intend to exit the round about, then you better make sure that it is safe to do so.

What a mess she made of the left side of her car.
Sounds like SHE hit you, you were in the "straight" lane, she crossed over and hit you.

yes, this IS all "old stuff" to those of us who have been living here for a while, but we are always getting new people moving here to TV, so perhaps it's not old to them.

I am guessing common sense is not a resident requirement.

All of the comments are good and well meaning, even the ones that contradict each other. And speaking of contradictions, the biggest one, perhaps is the large green sign at each circle and the lines that are painted on the street.

The dotted lines painted on the road belie what the green sign is telling you. Anywhere in the u. S., a dotted line means that you can pass -- that it's legal to do so. That clearly is NOT what the sign indicates!
