The Effective management of roundabout is very important as a part of the current traffic infrastructures in developing countries. A comprehensive understanding of its dynamics especially at unsignalized roundabouts is imperative. In this paper, we study and present a Microscopic Simulation of traffic in an unsignalised roundabout using a Microscopic Car Following model based on the Intelligent Driver Model (IDM)
