HOLLAND, Ohio — If you’re confused about how to safely navigate roundabouts while behind the wheel, the Toledo-Lucas County Health Department’s Traffic Safety Program is offering a training session next week.

The guided driving sessions, 20-30 minutes each, will be held on Aug. 27 from noon to 4 p.m. at the Wonder Ministries on Angola Road in Holland.

“Learn best practices for navigating roundabouts safely and efficiently. This training covers key rules, right-of-way guidance, and strategies for reducing congestion and improving traffic flow. Perfect for drivers looking to enhance their understanding of modern roundabout design,” according to the health department.
