Which side do you always enter a roundabout on?

  1. Left

  2. Right

  3. Straight

  4. Backwards

The correct answer is: Right

The correct choice is to always enter a roundabout from the right side. This is consistent with traffic laws in the United States, where vehicles drive on the right side of the road. When approaching a roundabout, you yield to any traffic already in the roundabout and then enter it, maintaining your right turn into the circular path. This design helps to facilitate a smooth flow of traffic and minimizes the potential for accidents, as all vehicles use the same direction. Entering from the left, straight, or backwards would disrupt the orderly flow of traffic and increase the risk of collisions. Understanding this rule is crucial for safety and efficiency when navigating through roundabouts.
