Round-abouts

Before I post my Friday poem, allow me to express my annoyance with those who seem to have the inability to understand a simple round-about while operating a vehicle.

Yield: To give up one's place, as to one that is superior

While driving, this means to yield, NOT STOP, as you enter the round-about. The person in the circle already has the right away (superior) so you must simply make sure they are exiting before you enter.

Europeans have round-abouts at every street almost, and they seem to be able to navigate this driving task just fine. If only, us, Americans could catch on.
