    I'll never understand why so many people have such a hard time with roundabouts.

    Because a roundabout requires paying attention and slowing down

    I have heard them referred to as “idiot circles”

    Yeah but still, even if I was driving too fast and not paying attention, if I got surprised by a sudden roundabout (which of course would never happen), I would at least straighten it out and drive through the center of it, if for no other reason than to keep the #### thing upright.

    It just kills me that all these idiots not only get surprised by the roundabout, but they actually make a foolish attempt to "complete the roundabout," even at full speed!

    There was an asphault tanker that rolled over in az thru all those roundabouts north of wickenburg. Not sure how he managed that because he was about 4 roundabouts into a series of 6 or 7 . Lucky for him the fire department was only about 800 ft down the road... Lol All that #### he spilled out of his tanker still sits allong the edge of the road a year or so later

    A lot of people can barely figure out a 4 way stop. Throw a roundabout in front of em and all bets are off
