I think the vast majority do. Have you tried to go around these tiny round about faster than 20 mph? You might be able to do 25 tops. any faster than that and you're going to be on two wheels.
Obviously a round about on a road such as this will be much larger than the ones on Morse and Buena Vista. I have lived in places where there are round abouts and they are much bigger than these. It's almost impossible to speed in these round abouts.
The Quezon City Circle in The Philippines is almost a half mile in diameter. Rotaries, as we call them in New England are much larger then the little circles we have in TV.
I would think that the FDOT knows a bit about building a round about on a 55mph road.
