Default New roundabout to be built to address safety concerns

As you come across the drawbridge and onto Cape Bretton NS you are greeted with this sign.
After you drive through the this rotary in a motorhome towing a car any roundabout in TV seems easy.

What the OP's picture doesn't show are arrows.
This "rotary" goes clockwise.

I understand that the "Family" is teaming up with an auto insurance company and the new roundabouts will be square with stop signs on each corner. They believe it will be as successful as the Medical system.

I Stuart Fla. On the east coast there is an intersection that was fondly referred to as "confusion corner" 5 streets coming together at the railroad tracks! Now it's a roundabout.
