How to Drive in a Roundabout
As you approach a roundabout:
Slow down, typically to 15 to 25 mph.
Yield to all vehicles already in the roundabout, as well as any pedestrians or cyclists.
Stay behind the painted line or crosswalk as you wait.
Enter the roundabout when you see a safe gap in traffic flow.
Give large trucks space.
Be patient with drivers ahead of you who are determining when it’s safe to enter.
When in doubt, wait it out.
Once you’re in the roundabout:
Keep a safe following distance between your vehicle and the vehicle ahead of you.
Use your turn signal when nearing your exit to signal to others what you’re going to do.
Don’t assume or try to anticipate another driver exiting the roundabout before they cross your path.
