Roundabouts with arms priority lead to deadlocks, I never thought about this. Interesting to see this in practice and to just give the rule "ring has priority"

Roundabouts with arms priority lead to deadlocks, I never thought about this.
Interesting to see this in practice and to just give the rule "ring has priority" for granted.
- Franciscouzo 8y agoThere's a big roundabout in my city that's in construction so some lanes are closed, when there's no traffic cops, people entering it cut you off, creating deadlocks, I've been stuck in that roundabout for >15min some times.
- ghostly_s 8y agoAren't you describing the difference between roundabouts and traffic circles? Maybe this is US-specific terminology.
- Sohcahtoa82 8y agoRoundabout and traffic circle are different terms for the same thing. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roundabout#Terminology https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roundabout#Terminology
- ghostly_s 8y agoAs described in the section you've linked to, they are not synonyms as far as how the USDOT uses them.
