Personally, I love the roundabouts in The Villages. They keep the traffic flowing well when negotiated properly.

I learned to drive roundabouts commuting in Virginia and on vacations in France so driving roundabouts is not new to me.

The problem is not the roundabouts. It is the drivers who are unaccustomed to them.

Does the admonishment "You can't teach an old dog new tricks." ring a bell?
