When exiting a multi-lane roundabout, what signaling should you use?

• A. Exit the roundabout and immediately merge into traffic without signaling.
• B. Signal before you enter the exit, not when exiting.
• C. Signal when you are in the exit lane and as you exit the roundabout.
• D. Ignore signaling and keep your hand on the wheel.

Answer: (C)

Signaling shows other drivers what you intend to do, so they can adjust their speed and lane position accordingly. In a multi-lane roundabout, the right approach is to turn on your signal once you’re in the exit lane and keep it on as you pass the exit and leave the roundabout. This clearly indicates you’re leaving, helping vehicles behind and beside you anticipate your movement. Signaling too early, before you even reach the exit, can confuse others about your actual path, and not signaling at all increases the risk of sudden, unexpected maneuvers. After you’ve cleared the exit, cancel the signal.
