When approaching a roundabout, the essential rule is to yield to traffic already circulating, enter only when it’s safe, stay in the correct lane, and signal when you exit. This keeps the traffic flow smooth and predictable. Entering immediately without yielding can lead to collisions with vehicles inside the circle, and stopping at the entrance disrupts flow and creates rear-end risks. Signaling only when there’s conflicting traffic doesn’t reliably warn others of your intended exit, which can surprise other drivers. By yielding, entering safely, staying in the proper lane, and signaling on exit, you communicate clearly and reduce risk for everyone on the roundabout.
