It's only lethal if you don't know what you're doing like any roundabout.
Just keep your wits about you and your eyes open.

On Friday, I had just entered that roundabout in the right hand lane, ready to turn down Calle Gerardo Rueda, in order to get back on to the N332 (north). As I was just about to pass Mercadona, 2 cars shot out of the supermarket exit, straight onto the roundabout, without looking...one immediately after the other.

I braked, to prevent myself from hitting the first vehicle. The car to my left also braked.

The car behind me (who was travelling too fast and was almost in my boot) swerved around me to my right, put their foot down, and proceeded to go past the Mercadona exit, past the Calle Gerardo Rueda exit, and proceeded down Calle Pablo Picasso towards the ayuntamiento.

In what way, exactly, did I "not know what I was doing"???
