Roundabout direction clarity
It is really not possible to “turn left” at a roundabout please go back to what you were doing before the recent change!!
It is perhaps reasonable in the UK or Australia but there it would be “exit left” onto “Xx St/Rd”
In North America, instructions to “use the #X exit to exit right onto Xx St/Rd” is more clear.
I understand that most North Americans are not used to turning circles/roundabouts but they are becoming more and more common and there are not always only 4 directions to turn.
Just remember the Arc de Triomphe!! Without more clear direction, where do I “turn left”???

I have seen people actually turn left when ENTERING a roundabout because Waze or Google Maps say to turn left at the roundabout. Please amend this wording to say "Enter Roundabout, take 2nd (3rd, 4th...) right" (or left when in England/Ireland, etc) This is a safety issue as some people have no common sense!

Yes! Please use "use the #x exit to __" to indicate where we should exit, instead of the phrase "turn left at the rotary". I have two roundabouts on my daily commute and while /I/ know not to turn left into a roundabout, I've seen two near collisions from people /not/ knowing that!
