How do you drive in a roundabout?

The Region of Waterloo wants you to “learn the turn” with its Roundabout education campaign. This year, it’s back to basics with a video that focuses on roundabout essentials and answers the ultimate question, “How the heck do you drive in a roundabout?”

This video takes viewers step-by-step through the rules of roundabouts. It covers the meaning of roundabout signage, signaling, pedestrians, and trucks in roundabouts.

The video was produced to reach a variety of audiences and has been distributed widely to libraries, high schools, driving schools, insurance companies and local businesses. It can also be viewed in its entirety or in smaller “chapters” on the region’s roundabout website, www.goroundabout.ca, or on the Region’s YouTube Channel at http://bit.ly/NkxH97.

Since 2004, roundabouts have been an important part of our roadway landscape in Waterloo Region. These circular intersections improve road safety, manage increased traffic demand and help improve air quality by eliminating unnecessary stops and idling.
