The rule is "Give way to traffic on the right".

Some peepur break the rule by chionging...if peepyur break rules anywhere, accidents will surely happen sooner or later.

Roundabout supplemented with traffic lights at peak hours.

Actually there’s one more at Serangoon Garden
Also the one at the Wealth Fountain at Suntec can also be considered as roundabout 
In the 80’s when they were too poor to put up traffic lights there were as many as a dozen roundabouts
