Homer Watson and Ottawa Three Lane Roundabouts

[plam]

I'd say that roundabouts have been common to the region for well over a decade now, and are pretty much pervasive within the region now and common throughout Ontario. I don't think there should be an excuse for not understanding how to deal with a roundabout. That said, does the driver training handbook cover roundabouts, and has the Highway Traffic Act been updated to enforce certain behaviours in roundabouts (I don't think so, but maybe I'm wrong)? These really need to be brought up-to-date, as roundabouts are basically unavoidable now in Ontario.

I lost points on my motorcycle M licensing exam this year for doing a roundabout wrong (I entered in the wrong lane, which messed things up). Definitely part of driver training there.
