NO. When being approached by an emergency vehicle using sirens and light/s, state laws in the U.S. generally require motorists to immediately pull to the right side of the road and wait for the emergency vehicle to pass. If stopped at an intersection with two-way traffic, remain stopped until the emergency vehicle passes. You should check the law in your particular jurisdiction.
A driver must always look to the left and yield to a vehicle that is already in the roundabout.
A vehicle about to enter a roundabout has no right-of-way over vehicles already in the circle Arkansas
Where do you live/drive? Different state (and countries) have different rules-of-the-road about which vehicle yields to which in a circle/rotary/roundabout.
If you hear a siren close by but cannot see the emergency vehicle you should follow the law in your jurisdiction, which generally is to pull over safely until you are able to determine that you are not in its path.When being approached by an emergency vehicle using sirens and light/s, state laws in the U.S. generally require motorists to immediately pull to the right side of the road and wait for the emergency vehicle to pass.

Grant the emergency vehicle the right of way.
It depends on the country. In the UK, we drive on the left. So, at a roundabout, we are expected to give way to vehicles entering the roundabout from our right. At a roundabout, we drive clockwise round it. In the UK, traffic circles are known as mini-roundabouts. Mini-roundabout are often used at a junction where a physical roundabout would prevent large vehicles from turning. Though vehicle can cross over a mini-roundabout, they are expected to still keep clockwise is they can.

Yes if you are just following it to see where it is going. It is however not illegal to be going in the same direction as an emergency vehicle as long as you stay 500 feet back. If the emergency vehicle is not using its emergency lights or sirens, and is not stopped at an emergency scene, you can treat it like a regular vehicle and follow it as would be legal for any other vehicle.
