In my country it's forbidden to drive in the roundabout for longer than necessary to reach the desired exit.

My understanding is you're not allowed to make a full loop unless it's unsafe to proceed.

Edit: sorry seems I was ambiguous. Meant going fully around and continue around.

What!? I think I've done a loop at least once when missing the exit (to catch it properly in the second attempt).

Making a full loop is called a U-Turn and they are absolutely permitted.

If you enter at 6 o'clock and exit again at 6 o'clock, you have travelled 360° which is a full loop.

Since you don't go into the same lane you came from, it could be considered a horseshoe shape.

They went to school in the Midwest, don't be too harsh on them.

Two lefts don’t make a right… but three do

Yeah, I think they were thinking of a barrel-roll.

I don’t remember where but I remember seeing a youtube video where someone did this but didn’t call attention to it

Like they were driving in a roundabout and just kept going around and around, then a jump cut to when they finally exited but like it was clearly much later because the sun was down. They had to have been in it for at least a half hour or so

I'm not entirely sure here, but I think, I saw something about useless driving around as a law around here

Which would fall into this ground, I guess...
