Driving Through A Roundabout
When the dust settles, the roundabouts are here to stay.  Here is a wonderful resource to keep up on the progress and status of affected intersections.  You can also view a great video hosted by WJR's Paul W. Smith that explains how to properly maneuver though the roundabout intersections.  If you have a teenage driver in your family, we suggest that you watch the instructional video with your teenage driver.  Hope this helps.
