The really complicated ones have lights. I know the one outside of the Copthorne Hotel where we have stayed frequently is, to put it mildly, insane. I will drive two miles out of my way to avoid it. That particular one is a circle pierced by four lanes and has 2-3 lanes circling in a whirly gig of chaotic motion. It's not because I can't figure it out, I have actually gone on it a bunch of times, it's because I'm usually jet lagged and now I'm on the opposite side of the road. I can just go the opposite way and not have to deal with trying to re-wire my brain to go the other way. It really messes up your instincts and takes a day or two and a good night sleep to get it sorted.
