When crossing a multi-lane roundabout, what lane should you remain in until you reach your exit?

Leftmost lane
Rightmost lane
Either the leftmost or rightmost lane
The lane you enter in

The correct answer is: The lane you enter in

When crossing a multi-lane roundabout, the lane you enter in is usually the lane you should remain in until you reach your exit. This is because roundabouts are designed to guide traffic in a counterclockwise direction, so if you enter from the right lane, you should stay in the right lane until your exit. Likewise, if you enter from the left lane, you should stay in the left lane. Remaining in the leftmost lane (A) or rightmost lane (B) may result in missing your exit, and using either the leftmost or rightmost lane (C) may cause confusion for other drivers and increase the risk of an accident. Conversely, staying in the lane you enter in (D) allows for a smoother and safer flow of traffic.
