Indicating on roundabouts (feddit.uk)

I was always under the impression that on a “normal" 4 exit roundabout (i.e. two roads crossing), you would indicate left if going left, right if going right, and no indication if going straight on. Then whichever way you're going you indicate left when passing the exit before. However, a number of drivers indicate right when going straight on, which means I stop expecting them to continue around but could've entered the roundabout. Am I incorrect here? Was there a time when something different was taught?

I find that driving up to a roundabout, stopping, looking around to see what's coming, then dithering about before uncertainly going, stopping then finally going, appears to be the way many are taught these days.

I usually point these types out as suffering from the disease that's sweeping through our country, that I call roundaboutitus.

Terrible condition, brings the rest of us out in frustration and anger.

How do these people dress themselves, let alone pass a driving test?
