When driving through a roundabout, on which side must the driver keep the central island?

Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

In roundabouts, the traffic flow is rotary and, in Spain, moves counter-clockwise. Therefore, the general rule requires keeping the center of the roundabout always to the left of the vehicle. Keeping it to the right would imply driving against the flow of traffic (which is prohibited). This rule applies regardless of the roundabout's design, unless specific signage indicates otherwise in exceptional situations.
