I’m sick of 4-way stops, but in a few places they make sense,

I hate the round abouts, they're especially dangerous when it comes to elderly drivers....I've almost gotten nailed several times by someone not recognizing I have the right of way when in the circle and I rear ended (not hard) an elderly lady who suddenly stopped in front of me when we both had the right of way and she assumed the car approaching from the left wasn't going to stop.

At this point in life I am beginning to realize that I don’t have the right of way unless it is granted.

“I hate the round abouts, they’re especially dangerous when it comes to elderly drivers”

Someone else implied that they liked roundabouts. They’re a damn pain in the butt (compared to 2-way stops) and I really doubt they’re put there to make life easier for people who use their cars to get from one place to the other. More like some Karen took a tour of Europe, or watched Rick Steves and thought it would be ‘quaint’ to have their shit here...so we get stuck with them.
