Why don't they celebrate easter ?

they cant actually drive and theres a good chance spending sufficient time in them would set them on orbit

They've been installing them like you wouldn't believe the past few years

God damnnit it would be nice if we could have more of those here. Much more efficient than the intersections we are using now.

their cars can't turn

American cars are terrible at turning

Too complex for the average american mind.

I remember being in multiple 2 hour traffic jams because of them in mass and rhode island

They usually allow traffic to flow faster

Because roundabouts confuse and enrage me

We do have them, here's one on the freeway in New Orleans that people take at like 60mph and crash on. There's actually some regular ones here too that are much better than four way stop signs.

traffic jam on one road connecting to the roundabout=traffic jam in every direction from the roundabout

put a couple near each other and have disproportionate heavy traffic coming off of one or two (highway entrance/exit for example), and bam, one road's traffic jam becomes 6 or 7 road's traffic jam

also one accident or retarded tourist can fuck up the whole thing easily

most of the time roundabouts do help traffic flow faster, but when they fuck up, they stay fucked up for a much longer time
