🚗 MASTERING MAIN PLAZA: DRIVE IT LIKE A LOCAL
If you’ve driven through downtown New Braunfels, you know the Main Plaza traffic circle can feel intimidating. But with a few simple tips, you can handle it like a pro:
Choose the correct lane early. Stay in the outside lane if you plan to exit soon; use the inside lane for going around further.
Always yield before entering. Cars already in the circle have the right of way.
Signal clearly. Use your blinker before exiting to keep traffic flowing smoothly.
Watch for pedestrians. Crosswalks around the Plaza stay busy, especially on weekends.
The key is slowing down, staying alert, and giving others a little extra space because the smoother everyone drives, the smoother the Plaza works.
Of course, even with the best habits, accidents can still happen. If you find yourself in a tough situation, our partners at The Kyle Law Firm have been standing up for drivers and families across the Hill Country for more than 25 years.
