Roundabouts
This chapter helps you understand the key principles of roundabouts.
Key ideas
A driver entering a roundabout must give way to vehicles already circulating in it.
Applying what you learned
As you approach a roundabout, read the signs and watch the vehicles already circulating. Slow before the entrance, choose a safe gap and give way as required. Plan your exit in good time and watch for pedestrians and cyclists when leaving. Calm, predictable driving matters more than entering quickly.
