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.

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.
