| @The Snakes: There are some roundabouts in the US (called rotaries, actually, in New England, at least). But the UK is a bit bizarre in having roundabouts where there's absolutely no need for them. Also, I don't quite understand the purpose of large roundabouts controlled by traffic lights (again, in the UK)... building the roundabout seems like a lot of effort to just create a really complicated lighted intersection. |
