And 285 ways are wrong. :22yikes:

Exactly.

You’re just adding to count. :pepper2:

Your point is correct, your comedians, not so much-----Abbott and Costello

No. 1 is completely RIGHT.

While a car in the left lane cannot leave at his first exit, you have no idea where the car entered the RB or what his first exit was. All you know is there is a car in the RB and it has the right of way to go left, straight, or right.

If two cars are traveling side by side but one reaches the RB a half second before the other, that is NOT what No. 1 is referring to. Those two cars entered at the same time, the half second faster car was not in the RB before you.

If you are the only car traveling towards a RB and you see a car already in the RB when you reach it, that car has the right of way and you must yield. If you cannot enter the RB before that car reaches you then you must wait for it to pass.

If that car happens to be in the inner/left lane of the RB it can exit towards you, it can continue straight and exit at what would be your first exit, or it can continue around to what you would call the second exit.

You are 100% correct. Now let's sit back and watch about 1/2 of the subsequent posters make a fool of themselves by contradicting that.

It’s possible you were in the wrong lane.
The Florida Drivers Handbook clearly shows with diagrams the lanes you should use and when.
It’s also possible that the other driver entered the roundabout too early. Again set out in the handbook.
Unless you were going straight over/thru the roundabout you should have been in the left lane.
I leave you to decide if that’s smart or safe.
Personally, seen too many accidents because people get this wrong.

The one thing I have learned is that a significant minority of drivers don’t know how to navigate roundabouts - and more importantly, they refuse to learn. There have been numerous explanations and several people have posted the Sumter County Board of County Commissioners guide to navigating roundabouts - and still a minority of people refuse to accept the rules.

After reading all of these posts, I recommend that everyone be extremely careful in roundabouts. At some point, you are going to be in a roundabout with someone who doesn’t know how to drive - but think they do!

Turns
 

When people finally realize you don’t make a right hand turn from the left lane! Wouldn’t do that on a regular road so not sure why people think they can do that on a round about! If you can’t get over then go around again and get in the proper lane to turn! The same for a left hand turn…can’t turn left from a right hand lane!

Huh? This is a Question and Answer format forum. I asked a question and 140 responses shows a wide interest in the subject matter. Why would you take time engage in this topic if it is of no interest to you- when your only motivation was to criticize everyone who considers it worthwhile?

So, Bill, it didn't take long---we have our first customer of the day.

So, when will people finally realize that you are not turning right from a left lane, you are exiting from an inner lane as per the correct procedure

Maybe the problem that people have trouble understanding is the analogy to a regular intersection explaining to enter from the left lane to go "left", the right lane to go "right" and either lane to go "straight". That's OK as a guide as to which lane to enter the RB, but the analogy ends there. The procedure for exiting a RB is different from a regular intersection, which has been pointed out 100x in this thread.

:1rotfl:

But, but I didn’t include “never change lanes”, which is repeated over & over.:wave:

:censored:, thanks for the correction.

And yet, as the previous posts show, there are those for which it will never sink in. The correct procedure has been laid out dozens of times in this thread alone, yet people go on posting wrong info. The lack of understanding of navigating the RBs is frightening just on the computer screen----the actions of these posters in the RBs are just plain dangerous
