Look, I just think we need to stop coddling those hedonistic roundabout hogs who get into the inner lane and circle for hours, wasting valuable capacity.
lol Americans dumb amiright? Can’t use roundabout
As a Frenchman now living in the US. Omg people cannot compute roundabouts it’s madness. There’s one at my doctor’s office and every time I go, someone is taking it backwards it’s madness!
Must just be your area. Where I live we have roundabouts all around (I have to go through 3 of them to get to my closest hardware store) and I don't really see that many people that have issues with them. Worst we have to deal with are cars who are too slow to get into the roundabout and wait forever, or drive slowly and clog up the roundabout, but those are pretty rare thankfully.
Just buy a big truck and teach em!
I'm american and work right next to a roundabout. It gets a pretty low amount of traffic but I still see people stop in the middle or go around backwards all the time.
That said, I see drivers doing the stupidest things pretty much everywhere, so the roundabout isn't exactly making things worse.
