And whoever designed that thing should probably be sent home with a box of crayons.

What the heck? How does one navigate that nightmare? That’s got to be photoshopped. No traffic engineer is that insane - I hope.

That is NOT a “roundabout” that’s a big mess.

Well, I can see what their problem is - they’re all driving on the wrong side of the road!

Well they’re going the wrong way for one thing but I think that’s one of the big rotaries he was talking about.

There’s a small one up in a college town near me that has five spokes with two of them being on/off ramps to the interstate. It works great and it’s single lane. I hate the multi lane type. Those are dangerous.

And that doesn’t even include the deafening horn action!

I wonder how a self-driving car would handle that intersection?

That image (The Magic Roundabout) is in Swindon, about an hours drive from where I live. I’ve travelled through it a few times and it’s not as bad as it looks.

By coincidence I was chatting to someone a few weeks ago - an ex-police officer. He told me that when it opened (50 years ago) he was on duty to deal with all the minor road accidents on it - and there were some. No one had really experienced anything quite like it in England before.
