    That’s a roundabout Sir. Different rules apply, because most often the exit is simply not visible from the entrance. You enter the roundabout when it is safe to enter. And in cases when the exit is visible, because the cars are constantly entering and moving around, you’ll never really have a clear exit even with normal traffic.

      The same rules apply to a roundabout where I live, if the exit isn’t clear, you don’t enter.

      People do it all the time and block the roundabout, but you’re not supposed to.

        Are you sure you’re not talking about a traffic circle?

        Roundabouts have specific rules, not every circular intersection is a roundabout

        No they don’t, because that’s not how roundabouts work. I won’t believe you until you show me some proof of said rules.

        In the meantime, you can go read about how roundabouts work and why it wouldn’t work if people waited for the exit to become clear.
