Verbatum from The Clarion-Ledger, the state's primary newspaper. From the Q & A column:
"Jack, can you please, please explain the proper usage of the roundabout at the airport?"
Jack: "According to traffic laws, there are two simple rules to keep in mind; as you approach a roundabout you'll always turn right, and you have to yield to any vehicle already in it. On the one at the airport, if you're in the right-hand lane, you're going to make a right turn. If you're in the left-hand lane as you approch, you'll enter the roundabout and drive a semi-circle to go straight or three-quarters of a circle to go left, but you'll go to the right. And, if the roundabout has two lanes, you yield to the traffic on the inside lane as well, since the vehicle will have to enter the outer lane to exit the roundabout. So go right to turn right, go right to go straight and go right to turn left."
We're trying. Really. We really are.
