You must yield to traffic already in a roundabout when you approach it.

When approaching a roundabout, traffic already circulating inside the circle has the right of way. You must yield to that traffic before entering, slowing down and waiting for a safe gap to merge. This rule keeps the flow smooth and reduces the risk of collisions as you join the circle. You don’t wait only in heavy traffic or enter only when there’s a lot of traffic; you yield every time you approach, regardless of the overall volume. The idea of entering only when on foot isn’t relevant to driving rules at roundabouts. Pedestrians may cross at designated crosswalks, and drivers must respect their rights as well, but the fundamental rule for vehicles is to yield to those already in the circle. Thus, the statement is true.
