This road has lots of visitors, do you think they will have any idea how to navigate a traffic circle???
Let's see there will be signs "YEILD TO TRAFFIC IN CIRCLE", right, and these will be obeyed like YEILD, STOP, etc.
If they actually decide to do this, there will be at least one less car on 301, and I will need to find a suitable detour.
We have enough problems with the low speed traffic circles in TV, especially during snowbird season, I cannot imagine how this will work on 301.

I have seen some other articles where it was stated that there were locations where these worked very well and others where they were a disaster. I have seen both, and I am certain that this location will be a disaster.

I've only driven it once, but if you go from Boston to Cape Cod you encounter 1 or 2 on busy main highways. Maybe they're the reason I only drove it once!
