It would help so much if you discussed and illustrated how to safely cut across a lane in a roundabout when needed. What if all lanes are and you are in the left lane? How do you cross an occupied lane to your right in order to exit to the right? Plus, you say you need to know what to do before you enter a roundabout. What's the best way to approach a roundabout you're unfamiliar with?
And the number one rule: if it's not safe to exit from the left lane, go around again! Too many people will just come to a sudden stop if they can't get over, and that's far more dangerous. Just put your left signal back on and keep going around. You'll be able to get out the next time around, and it doesn't take that long.
@@AniezkaJi Because you're going all the way back around the roundabout and will be turning left the whole time until you get back to the exit you missed. You switch over to your right signal once you get back to your exit. The left signal is to tell all of the cars waiting to enter the roundabout that you will be crossing in front of them and that they need to give way. It's especially helpful at roundabouts that have lane shifts. People are accustomed to thinking that "steering away from the island" = "exiting" and may pull right out in front of you when you're simply following your lane around the roundabout. The left signal makes it clear that you're not exiting yet.
That's because you are supposed to be yielding to them, they were in first and are supposed to be exiting from the inner circle if they are making a left turn. The video by the U.S. Dept of Transportation explains it better. It's not a race to get through these. People need to slow down to the posted speed limit and yield (not merge) to those already in the roundabout.
This is very misleading and wrong. Exiting the roundabout from the left lane is very dangerous, and yes, you can change lanes in the roundabout for left turn or U- turn (in a safe manner) just after you passed the preceeding exit.
