If there is no appropriate gap in traffic when approaching a roundabout, you may need to

• A. Stop until an appropriate gap becomes available.
• B. Enter immediately even if there is no gap.
• C. Turn around and take another route.
• D. Continue around the roundabout in the opposite direction.

Answer: (A)

When approaching a roundabout, you must yield to traffic already in the circle and to pedestrians. If there isn’t a safe gap in traffic to merge, the correct action is to stop at the yield line and wait until a suitable gap appears before entering. This keeps you from forcing your way into moving traffic and helps prevent collisions. Entering without a safe gap would be unsafe and violate the yield rule. Turning around to take another route isn’t the immediate action required by the situation, and continuing around the roundabout in the opposite direction is not allowed since traffic in roundabouts travels in one direction.
