Multiple Choice

Which scenario describes the proper approach to entering a roundabout?

Entering a roundabout safely hinges on yielding to traffic already in the circle and entering only when there is a safe gap. As you approach, slow down, look to the circulating traffic, and wait for a comfortable break before you merge. Traffic inside the circle already has the right of way, so you yield and only enter when you can do so without forcing your way in. Once you’re in, move counterclockwise around the circle, staying to the right and maintaining a steady speed. Plan your exit ahead of time and signal right to let others know you’re leaving, then exit smoothly. Do not rush in by speeding up to squeeze through, and roundabouts don’t require stopping at the entrance or signaling anything at entry; you only signal your exit. This approach keeps traffic flowing safely and reduces the risk of collisions.
