I had a friend who did that.

Unintentionally, of course. The fog that morning was incredibly thick, he didn’t see the roundabout and drove onto it full bore. Clipped a direction sign and damn near grated one side of the bodywork off.

Cleveland put roundabouts in an old neighborhood which is very compact. The circle is not only very small but there is nothing in the center and the curb is less jarring than your average speed bump. When they first opened they left orange barrels in the center so you could even tell it was a roundabout

How about the people who go the wrong way around because it is quicker

Great way to hit a tree, stop suddenly, and die.

There are some roundabouts by where I live with just a paved circle in the center. So many people do just this.

This video always comes to my mind when talking about roundabouts

They installed two of these in my town a couple years ago, people still don’t know how to use them. They’re especially entertaining in the winter.

Track_Shovel OP ,

LOL wtf. They made a traffic circle, and then said ‘fuck it, they’ll never get it right’

SuperIce ,

That is no where near the worst traffic circle in NJ. There was one way worse near where I lived. It had like 3 lanes and a stop sign that gave priority to people entering the circle vs people already in it. I’ve heard of so many crashes happening there

grue ,

Fun fact: the main difference between “traffic circles” (which are terrible) and “modern roundabouts” (which are much better, although still not so great for pedestrians and cyclists) is that the former gives entering traffic priority while the latter gives people already in it priority.

I learned from Real Civil Engineer that these are called “hamburger roundabouts.” According to the OSM wiki, “throughabout” is another name for them.

Here’s an even weirder one, in the Netherlands:

Also check if you got a co driver that goes YOUR BREAKING THE CAR SAMIR

saltesc ,

Learned a while ago, that was actually an edited together video by a competitor to defame the driver and their privateer rally group. Samir is/was actually a very good driver and it was purely defamation marketing.

There is a non-zero number of people that do this. I’ve seen the evidence of this myself.
