Regarding roundabouts: Once of the best pieces of advice I've received is that you should assume you're entering the roundabout at 6 o'clock and the navigator should tell you to exit at 12, 3, 9, etc. While it's sort of counterintuitive to think of entering at 6, it makes complete sense once you're doing it. (Of course, this assumes you're of the generations that can read analog clocks.)
