    Traffic circles are. Roundabouts are okay.

    Tecnically not a roundabout, just a circular road

    Same in DC. I was going through the roundabout, a bit fast, secure in the knowledge I have right of way …… and suddenly there’s a red light.

      I really like the ones with multiple sets of lights so it’s hard to tell which is yours.

  i feel like having traffic lights on a roundabout is worse than just having a 6-way intersection

    You could have this instead—no lights but some people entered several years ago and are still heading home…

  I’ve been in one of these abominations, traffic lights included…

  Diverging diamond

  It makes sense, sort of, but still feels like you’re going to have a head on collision the entire time.

    One? These are pretty common in the greater Atlanta area.
