Roundabouts: A different perspective
Suppose a fire truck has to go through 6 or more roundabouts to get to your house. That means it has to speed up and slow down 6 or more times from about 5 miles per hour to 35mph? That wastes precious minutes. The same for ambulance and police. It won't affect me but I was just wondering if anyone has ever given any thought to this.
I guess you could say that emergency vehicles have problems with traffic slowing them down all the time. So this is just another obstacle they have to get around?
