Today im here for explain with a gif how roundabout works. Last days , i saw some problems with Kyoto roundabout , but the next gif , explain how roundabouts works:
We have 3 cars. Blue , Green , and Red cars:
The blue car coming to the rb its the blue one , which one is going to take the 2nd exit.
Green arrives to the rb too , but blue is inside the rb , so the driving rules says : " Give way to the cars inside of rb. "
Green car , wait to blue pass , then he can join to it.
But , red car arrives. Its the same , he have to wait for green car pass .
You dont have to do a full stop(unless the signage says it) if there is enough visibility. If you check and there is no car coming , you can go , but if there is one coming , you have to wait , and when the car/cars had passed , you can join rb.
I know that most of the users know it , but some of us and new users dont know it , so hope that it helps. Thanks , and report if anything its wrong

"Give way to people IN the roundabout"
