Should You Drive Clockwise or Counterclockwise at a Roundabout?

[VeraDella]

Vehicles entering a roundabout should drive counterclockwise; when navigating an interchange fork, follow the directional signs before the intersection. When exiting the roundabout, signal right in advance and keep to the right while exiting. Roundabouts have multiple entry and exit points, requiring frequent road adjustments; vehicles must smoothly enter and exit, demanding constant situational awareness. These frequent changes, combined with every vehicle facing both road and positional adjustments, significantly increase the likelihood of minor collisions. Below are key roundabout driving considerations: 1. Roundabouts are prone to congestion: Particularly during rush hours, many drivers struggle with roundabout navigation - those inside can't exit while those outside can't enter, easily causing gridlock. 2. Improper light usage: Another contributor to roundabout chaos is drivers' failure to properly signal their intentions, creating confusion as vehicles move unpredictably without clear communication.
