Roundabout (mandatory direction)
Mandatory signs

Roundabout (mandatory direction)

Drive round the roundabout in the direction of the arrows.

Follow the arrows around the central island. Observe the give-way signs, road markings and priority rules that apply at the entrance.

The common design is a blue circle with white curved arrows arranged around the centre. Poland uses C-12, while the United Kingdom's 611.1 identifies a mini-roundabout and shows clockwise circulation.

How it looks in each country

Official sign in each country; the code is its number in the national rules. Signs that come in two directions show the left and the right version.
