I love roundabouts. Driving in the UK is a revelation. You just sort of keep going and driving is a bit more fun. The drivers are also better than in the USA. Which is why I think there’s often resistance here. Every time a roundabout is proposed near me there’s a vocal group of opposers. I just don’t really get it since in many cases a roundabout is preferred to an intersection in my opinion. But one comment I read summarizes it I guess: “Drivers here are just too dumb for a roundabout. We can trust them to think.” And I guess I sort of agreed. Driving in America is weird because so many people do things like passing on the right, not using turn signals, and driving the wrong speed in whatever lane they’re in causing chaos.
