I don't mind the complexity of it, but they need to make it bigger to make lane changes possible. That and experienced drivers are too impatient for new drivers to figure it out.
Traffic inside the roundabout has priority, meaning you wait to go in until no one comes from left (roundabouts are always counter-clock). That difficult?
I enjoy this meme. Truly a Lemmy original.
It's a step up from beans & jeans, for sure.
Shhhh! Just to mention it might bring it back!
there are many roundabouts in my American city and sometimes the Americans even use them correctly
American? Do you mean USAEan?
Ok. I get it. There are people in the Americas that are not from the US. But do you call people from the United Mexican States "Unitied Mexican Stateans"? No, that sounds ridiculous. I think that it's silly anyway to call everyone from either Americas "American" anyway; they are two different continents! "North American" or "South American" would be better, if you must get so broad with your adjectives (but really, continent-wide generalizations of people are rarely useful anyway). Sorry for the rant.
They're not two different continents thought?
1: I was making a meta joke, and this point isnt really your fault
2: Canada takes up more of North America than the States does, and no one says "United States of Mexico", they say Mexico. Mexico is also not a continent that is shared with other Countries. In general I'm not going to fight people referring to the States as America, but you arguement is BAD
I was waiting for this one lol
Inevitable as the heat death of the universe.
I do not understand :(
I think the joke is people keep posting the "you can drive x hours and still be in y location", but really, you can drive indefinitely in one neighborhood, without every leaving. You could stay in the roundabout for as long as you want, just like you can drive from South Africa to Finland, or whatever.
are you American?
I used to live nearby! Loved that silly thing, just don’t treat it like one big roundabout - it’s six chained roundabouts that you can use individually; both green and red routes are valid and legal for the same destination:
Could someone flip this for those of us who drive on the right?
But the drawn arrows already imply driving on the right side? Or did this get edited?
Saving this pic so I can recreate this beautiful monster in Cities: Skylines.

Did you Photoshop out all the traffic lights??
Traffic lights make roundabouts pointless, unless they’re on a quick cycle used to ‘group’ cars entering a multi-lane roundabout.
If your population didn’t grow up with roundabouts though, and treats them like YOLO free for alls… then you might need lights
i’m sure you mean this seriously, it just tickles me.
