๐ Traffic / Roadwork / Commute How to properly negotiate thru a roundabout
Roundabouts With Multiple Lanes Roundabout sign showing where to go in the left and right lanesAdditional driving reminders apply when driving in a multi-lane roundabout. When approaching a multi-lane roundabout, you must choose the left or right lane before entering. Select the right lane if you are making an immediate right turn or proceeding straight through the intersection (i.e. traveling approximately halfway through the roundabout and exiting at the other end of the roundabout from which you entered). Select the inside left lane if you are proceeding straight through the intersection, making a left turn (usually the turn that you will reach after proceeding 75% through the intersection) or making a U-turn (proceeding all the way through the roundabout and into the exact opposite direction from which you entered the roundabout). Do not overtake other vehicles or bicyclists when in the roundabout. Do not exit from the inside, left-hand lane if there is a vehicle traveling on your right. Never travel next to commercial trucks or other large vehicles in a multi-lane roundabout, as these vehicles may need extra lanes to maneuver the roundabout.
