When entering a multi-lane roundabout, what should you do regarding right-of-way?

When entering a multi-lane roundabout, yielding to drivers already in the roundabout is crucial for maintaining safety and ensuring smooth traffic flow. Roundabouts operate on the principle that vehicles inside the roundabout have the right-of-way. This means that as you approach the roundabout, it is your responsibility to assess the situation and yield to any vehicles already circulating.

This behavior helps prevent accidents and allows the roundabout to function effectively. Maintaining this right-of-way etiquette ensures that traffic can move freely without unnecessary stops or disruptions, which are common in situations where entering vehicles fail to yield properly. While yielding to pedestrians, who may be crossing at the entrance or exit points of the roundabout, is also important, the primary focus when entering is on yielding to the vehicles already in the roundabout.
