I used to agree. But people are creatures of habits. There is a well-known "large" roundabout near Copenhagen often called the IKEA roundabout. Obviously next to IKEA but still so known that it has a "popular" name. It has large overhead signs. On road signage. Traffic and street lights. The overhead signs show that you should take the left most lane to go left. Two middle lanes for straight ahead. And a breakout lane to the right which goes right. It is all very easy to understand and logical. But the number of lanes and the fact it is so busy it is regulated with traffic lights makes people very uncomfortable. As I find it very logical and easy to navigate I have come to my own conclusion that it is because this type of roundabout is unusual and uncommon around here. You will notice peoples lizard brain set in. They are scared they cannot exit so they clearly choose the outer-most of the 2 straight ahead lanes. And dangerous situations when people who needs to go left take the outer lane because you can "always" do that in a roundabout (but not here!). And for further anecdotal evidence this has come up several times in conversations and people have stated they do not like it.

We have a similar roundabout in Dublin although it is not well signposted. People do two things that they seem to think will make them safe. First as you say they stick always in the outer two lanes. Second they increase their speed... I think on the basis that if they get through it quickly there is less chance of something going wrong.

Large busy overhead signs are not as helpful as simple arrows at each opportunity to turn. Maybe arrows on the pavement, just in front of the turn.

Our first roundabout around here had 13 (thirteen!) signs just before you entered, including a map. Disaster. Folks just want to know, which is the left-turn lane etc.

Btw is that the right link? It looks like an ordinary roundabout with right-turn ramps.

The link is correct.

The simple arrows you prefer are there as well. But the overhead signs are important when there is a lot of traffic as you will see the road markings too late.

You have to look at the satellite image to see the unusual (around here) parts: Traffic lights, stopping lines inside the roundabout and the left turn lane within.
