On a fairly open roundabout I can see a car approaching from a road on

Assuming you can negotiate the roundabout without interfering with his
progress, carry on. But not if you would force him to slow down.


Is the rule give way to traffic on the roundabout or give way to traffic
on the right?

On the roundabout is IIRC what the HC says.

I see so many cases where because the driver entering the roundabout
sees there is no traffic on his right he assumes he has right of way.

Perhaps the odd car from the right crashing into him might make him change
his ways?
