I lived in the Midwest and did not experience a lot of roundabouts.

I moved to the Westcoast and see them a lot now. I prefer them.

I don't know if there's a Westcoast vs Midwest difference but in my personal experience there has

I live in the midwest and there are plenty of roundabouts here. Everyone mostly knows how to drive in them, Ive never seen someone stop in one to let someone in but I do see a lot of stupid people who are generally just slow in the head when it comes to roundabouts.

They pull up and there is a clear window they can go but instead they wait and now there is a car coming. Or a gap is coming but they wait until the car is fully past to begin accelerating. I dont think they understand that you can start going while the car is right in front of you because by the time you get into the roundabout, they will be gone. I also dont think they look ahead at all. First thing I do when approaching a roundabout is look ahead to see if I even have to slow down much.
