Those roundabouts, are supposed to slow you down.no way!! My husband built a few of those he just laughed!
Roundabouts on level ground seem to work.
The roundabouts on Guintoli Lane both East and West side are on a slope.
That’s true!!!
Roundabouts prevent head-on collisions,
and are more efficient at moving traffic.
When you go to Europe, check the roundabouts. They are two (2) lane. Much easier to use than the single lane ones in Arcata.
I think roundabouts suck, ive had way more close calls on those than any stop sign intersection. People dont slow down entering the roundabout and almost hit whomever is going around it. You know those folks that think a yield sign doesnt apply to them.
