Anyone else remember the Mythbuster's episode MythBusters: Four-way stop vs. Roundabout? They at least had the common sense to build their roundabout large enough to be useful.
I hate roundabouts. I keep encountering them on through roads, and they slow me down.They're even worse when I am in an area for the first time, and I don't know exactly where my destination is. Then the roundabouts keep me from finding the house I am looking for.
