This PSA brought to you by several would-be assassins who tried to wave me in front of speeding cars in the last month and who will have to try harder next time.

      I will happily take an extra large roundabout.

      Or “traffic circle” if you’re feeling fancy.

      It’s taken more than 5 years but I feel like people in the city I just moved out of are finally understanding the ones in town.

      Now almost nobody stops at them like an intersection. And i haven’t seen a crash from someone launching themselves straight over the center in months.

        I never heard of that sort of case short from DUI, which shouldn’t be include in any accident statistic other than DUI. They’re really magical people that will make all sort of edge case happen.

        But yes, love roundabout, it’s a really good way to make traffic flow smoother on a lot of junction, though the downside is you can’t have a traffic light near it. Traffic light is always the bottleneck of every jam in my city
