Crosswalks are placed one or two car-lengths before the roundabout itself. Yield to any pedestrians who are in, or about to enter, the crosswalk. If a car is in the roundabout, you could look at the direction of its tires or if it has a signal, this will give you an indication whether they’re turning or they’re going to go straight through the roundabout.
If an emergency vehicle is about to enter or has already entered the roundabout, do not stop in the roundabout. Instead, exit out your original destination and only then pull over.
Occupy the left lane if you decide to turn left, make a U-turn, or go straight. Occupy the right lane if you decide to turn right or go straight. Look for signs indicating the allowed movements for each lane. These signs are usually located above or alongside the road and/or arrows painted on the road itself.
Enter the roundabout as if you were a vehicle. Remain centered in your lane to be most visible and avoid being cut off by other vehicles. If you are uncomfortable riding your bicycle through the roundabout, exit the roadway and use the crosswalks.
Look to your left and cross when there is a safe gap in traffic. Stop when you reach the splitter island. Look to your right and cross when there is a safe gap in traffic.
