Where are you? We have tons of 2-lane roundabouts in Sweden as well, and I can assure you that far from everyone understands them. And even if they understand them in the sense that they got the theory question about them correct on their driving test, everybody certainly doesn't implement that knowledge consistently and correctly when faced with a 2-lane roundabout.
- yreg 3y agoBratislava, Slovakia. I don’t recall anyone I know having an accident on a roundabout. Newbie drivers I talk to/drive with are much more worried/unsure about crossings (both the ones without traffic lights and the big ones with many lanes) and of course about parking. Of course, there will be SOME people who are clueless on roundabouts, similar to how there are always some people who will stop on a highway after missing an exit and pull back. But let's not argue about the long tails. IMO if you learn to drive at a time when roundabouts are already ubiquitous, they are trivial. At least I found other aspects of driving more difficult.
- JohnFen 3y ago> there are always some people who will stop on a highway after missing an exit and pull back. What?? People do that?? My mind is blown. I've never once seen that happen, so the possibility never entered my mind. Now that I think about it, though, I should probably be more surprised that I haven't encountered it.
