Add into the equation high volumes of high speed traffic, high percentage of people new/visiting the area, even higher percentage of senior and senior plus drivers and a formula for disater is in the making.
I would like to see or hear the dialogue that concludes with the recommendation of a traffic circle in that location.

I agree 100%. That's the reason I couched my post regarding whether it's a good idea or not. Each location has to be evaluated on its own merit. Any given location may or may not be appropriate for a roundabout. Traffic volume is only one of many considerations.
