Default How to use a round-about

Bet the other drivers thought this person was nuts.
I thought this was a good way to use a traffic circle.

That was pretty good. Aren't all Audi's AWD? I thought it was incredibly hard to drift an AWD car.

Why do people do that in public streets in the middle of the day with other innocent drivers out on the road???

However, that was pretty good. Makes you wanna buy an S6 wagon...

Apparently there is one old dear who has been stuck on it, going round and round since 2001.

And even more confusing, why do other people think that it's cool to do so?
