The road signs that teach travellers about France

From abbeys and bridges to fish soup and Resistance history, France's motorway signs offer drivers a crash course in the nation rushing past their windows.

They need to teach how to use their crazy roundabouts...

The World's Largest Roundabout

That's just a regular rounndabout.

Heh. Let's do a quick survey though. In France who has the right of way? The car that is already in the roundabout or the car entering the roundabout?

In France, in absence of contrary indications (ie: absence of signs, traffic signals, or line markings), it's "Priority to the Right".

So if it's an actual roundabout (aka, "rond-point"), then normal traffic rules apply for intersections: Priority to the Right. Vehicles already on the roundabout must yield to cars entering it.

Often, you have what is referred as "Carrefours à sens giratoire", which can very much look like "rond-points", but priority is to the vehicles already on the roundabout. For this reason, there will be a yield sign at the entrance of the roundabout to make it clear there's a special rule that applies to it. Sometimes you have traffic lights as well.

Most of the world doesn't have 6x6 lane uncontrolled intersections where people need to yield to the right. In fact your average 2 lane intersection with traffic lights, here in North America, once those traffic lights don't work for some reason it becomes almost impossible to navigate the intersection despite the "priority rules" being more or less known. It just becomes total chaos because there is usually enough traffic to just keep one direction going forever given that everyone slows down.

Even with one lane intersections North America usually uses "all stop" if there's any amount of traffic to regulate the flow.

I just hate multi-lane roundabouts in general but the French ones I dislike even more. There's a lot more that you need to keep track of, the traffic in the roundabout and the traffic that wants to enter.
