Sorry folks, the OP just triggered a back-in-the-day story -
It was 1967 (before the Internet was a source of information) I was entering Paris in a VW bug with "USA" - military license plates. Side note - at the time the French were trying to kick US military presence out of France, therefore my car was a "target" to start with.
About 4 PM, I attempted to enter this traffic circle - with a MAJOR misconception! -
"Unlike traditional roundabouts found in most places around the world, in France you must give way to the cars which are entering the roundabout."
After FINALLY getting into the circle, I worked my way to the outside and "escaped" on the first street that I could.
I did not crash.
THE END
