Driving on a roundabout
You drive a roundabout keeping to the right around the central island. In practice: you approach, give way to traffic already on the roundabout (usually shown with shark teeth), and enter without signalling. When leaving you signal right. Step by step for the second exit: (1) approach at an adjusted speed and look carefully to the left; (2) give way to circulating traffic; (3) enter the roundabout without indicating; (4) pass the first exit; (5) now signal right; (6) leave at the second exit and watch for crossing cyclists and pedestrians. On large (turbo) roundabouts keep to your lane and do not change abruptly. Always give way to a tram and to emergency vehicles with flashing lights and a siren.
