We need more roundabouts instead of traffic lights or stop signs

This is honestly the worst thing I've seen all day. Every fucking morning I have to go through two roundabouts just to go to class and there's always that cunt 40 something soccer mom that doesn't understand the concept of YIELDING, and almost rams my car. Fuck roundabouts. Fuck you.

Better idea: We need more limited-access, grade-separated expressways

Without traffic
>traffic lights: meh
>roundabouts: great

With traffic
>traffic lights: shitty
>roundabouts: FUCKING AWFUL

Seriously, traffic with roundabouts really fucking sucks. There's always women in shitty Prius and other slow cars holding everyone else down because they're afraid of merging.

Best idea: we need less cars and less humans in general

>Yield to traffic
>It just never stops
>Stuck at roundabout forever

>>35870143
Because of the slow cars >>35870067 mentioned, eventually the cross traffic would slow down to where you can cut in

American here. My countrymen cannot comprehend roundabouts.

Theres a relatively new one that I have to go through at least twice a week. People have no idea what they're doing I always see people doing laps or just pulling in without paying any attention to other cars.

I prefer these. Merging the two circles makes traffic more predictable.

Try this. I tried to find the one we have here but I guess it's too new for any internet documentation, but this is a similar design

we should keep roundabouts, stay the course and maybe they'll learn one day

>>35870865
What the actual fuck. That HAS to be a shoop

>>35870865
Is there a tunnel or a passage I'm not seeing there?
Because if there isn't, that's the most idiotic thing I've ever seen related to traffic. How fucking long would one take to reach the center of that circle? How many fucking galons of gas extra would they spend each day? Look at the size of that thing... It's so abominable I'm actually nauseated.

I can vouch for that.

This roundabout in my area is hell. The civil engineers who designed it must have had a hard-on for compromise, because they couldn't commit to any particular design for the entire roundabout.

And the people in the area don't know what the fuck to do with this shit, either.

>people who come into the roundabout from the right and want to exit at the bottom sometimes take the inside lane, sometimes take the outside lane
>people waiting at the top have no idea whether they're clear to enter or not due to inconsistency

>people entering from the top will often just cross over into the other lane in the middle of the roundabout

>pull up to roundabout one day from the bottom
>see car coming in roundabout, yield
>car comes to a complete stop in middle of the roundabout just before me
>don't feel like wasting time, so I just go

>pull up to roundabout one day from the right
>there's a car at a full stop in the yellow line area just above the center of the roundabout
>it's facing me
>just fucking ignore it and go through the roundabout
>it exits through the top after I pass it

>>35869889
Last Saturday, I went through my first roundabout.
I didn't expect it, there weren't any signs to signal it was gonna happen, the road just became... circular.
I freaked out for a bit and immediately exited it.

This

Roundabouts only work if people actually fucking use them properly.

Alot of people seem to also forget to indicate on the small ones and continue around. I have not faith that other drivers can use them so i basically renders them pointless

ls it a JoJo reference?

>>35869889
New Zealand here. Roundabouts work pretty well. Probably prefer even over traffic lights. Traffic seems to flow faster.

>>35869889
traffic lights > roundabouts > stop signs > yield signs > priority to the right

>>35869889
literally 90% of drivers are too stupid to use them correctly

Roundabouts are god tier

>can always cross them if traffic lights are fucked
>accidents almost don't happen because traffic is pretty slow
>don't have to wait 10 minutes for eberyone else to cross
>people look out better
>doesn't mess with the flow of traffic too much

I live in the Netherlands and fuck traffic lights or regular crossings, give me roundabouts or give me death.

>>35874863
The top and bottom are one way traffic, both northbound only. Southbound half of the circle is west of it on the other side of the interstate. Can't get the image small enough to post.

won't somebody please think of the pedestrians

There's 2 in the town I live in and EVERY SINGLE TIME I go around them with my father in law he says "truck drivers don't like these, they're too small. They should have built them bigger"
Despite the fact that I never see a truck have a problem with them.

>>35869889
Roundabouts are a good alternative to 4-way stops, but a bad alternative to traffic lights.

>>35872817
Did you make that? nice

>>35869997
you don't look both ways on a roundabout, moron

it's a one way system
