For answer  A 

The road legislation does not oblige to reduce the speed when you move in an intersection with a roundabout, on the grounds that the danger of blockage is created.

For answer  B 

The voluntary stopping of vehicles is prohibited in intersections, including in those with traffic moving in a roundabout. Therefore, you are prohibited from stopping the vehicle in an intersection with traffic moving in a roundabout, except for the situations required by traffic. For example, the situation in which you have the obligation to give priority to the passage of an official convoy of motor vehicles.

For answer  C 

U-turn is prohibited in the cases in which the voluntary stopping is prohibited, but with the exception of intersections, including with the exception of intersections with a roundabout. Therefore, the U-turn by bypassing the island is allowed. But we must know that U-turn is prohibited in the intersections in which maneuvers forward and backward are needed in order to turn the vehicle.

The correct answer is: B
