www.insideHALTON.com | OAKVILLE BEAVER | Thursday, November 7, 2013 | 20 It is not without a price, that we live in a land that is free. In honour of our brave veterans ­ for your service, endurance, sacrifice and wisdom that we all too often take for granted. We are humbled by your bravery and inspired by your love of country. With deep appreciation and respect, we thank you. Tips for navigating roundabouts continued from p.14 "This has done what it was supposed to do. Is it 100 per cent perfect? No, but there's always room for improvement. The Town was bang-on with this (roundabout)," said Wells. The traffic technologist noted new speed measurements were taken recently at the Great Lakes Boulevard and Timeless Drive roundabout. Results are to be released in the near future, he said. The key thing drivers need to remember when approaching a roundabout is to yield right-ofway to motorists in the circle, Bell said. Town staff offers six tips for motorists approaching and driving through roundabouts: · As you approach the roundabout, slow down and be prepared to stop, as you do not have the right-of-way to enter · Be aware of pedestrians crossing and vehicles in the roundabout · Vehicles entering the roundabout must yield to all traffic in the roundabout, including cyclists · Once there is a safe gap in traffic, enter the roundabout in a counterclockwise direction. · As you travel around the roundabout, obey the posted speed limit · As you approach the exit you wish to take within the roundabout, use your right-hand turn signal and exit For more information, visit www.oakville.ca.
