Saskatchewan Driver Education GDL Class 7 Learner Practice Test

When approaching a roundabout, yielding to traffic that is already circulating inside the roundabout is the correct action to take. This rule helps to maintain a smooth flow of traffic and ensures safety for all vehicles and pedestrians involved. Roundabouts are designed to allow vehicles to continue moving rather than stop, so yielding to those already in the roundabout minimizes the risk of collisions and delays.

Entering a roundabout without yielding would create potential hazards, disrupting the orderly flow of traffic and increasing the likelihood of accidents. Always turning left is not a requirement in roundabouts since they often allow drivers to choose the direction they wish to continue (left, straight, or right), depending on their destination. Speeding up to clear the roundabout quickly is also unsafe, as it could lead to losing control or not allowing sufficient space for other vehicles already in the roundabout, thus posing serious risks.
