Just make them one or two lanes all the way around, but stop with this half-assed stuff. The rules are simple and clear:
1. Yield going in.
2. Inside lane has the right of way on every exit (so pick your lane accordingly in advance). That's it.
Signalling is icing on the cake, but let's not get carried away until we get the basics sorted.

Yeah, there are nuances but that's it.
Meanwhile, yay ring road. I can't wait.
