When entering roundabouts you go what direction?
- A.
Counter-clockwise
- B.
Clockwise
Correct Answer
A. Counter-clockwiseExplanation
When entering roundabouts, you go in a counter-clockwise direction. This is because roundabouts are designed to facilitate smooth traffic flow and reduce the risk of accidents. By going counter-clockwise, vehicles are able to merge into the flow of traffic from the right, which allows for a continuous movement without the need for stopping. This direction also ensures that vehicles exiting the roundabout can do so safely, as they are already positioned on the right side of the road.Rate this question:
