    @Bob Dobalina , I know its an old thread, but got me thinking. I dunno about by where you are, but in my neck of the woods, ALL the small towns have them, many of which I go thru in my course of the days. I just get used to them; Mt. Gilead, Marengo, Newark, Ashley, etc etc etc...... fun fun!!!!! Being timid or shy can keep you there for a good part of the day, tho. LoL! Good thread.

    I'm in Columbus. We also have a ton of them in the surrounding suburbs, and I happen to actually like them for the most part. They usually do a good job of fixing probematic, unsafe intersections.

    But have you ever been to Somerset? That's the town at OH 13 and US 22 that has the goofy one I mentioned earlier where you're supposed to yield to traffic on your right instead of cars coming from the left. It violates the laws of roundabout physics.

    ^^^^ Somerset; sure have! Sheesh you bring back memories! We hauled a load from Toledo to East Fultonham, and had to go to Chillicothe to switch trailers with another guy for a backhaul to Toledo {long day} Wife said take 22, it was the most direct route, and then ... Somerset. We were like WTF?!?!? I'm left-handed, so it wasn't too bad for me, LoL. Good thing SHE wasn't driving that leg of the trip; could've been ugly. Defies all the laws of physics. Yup!!!! Crazy~!!!!!
