We have defrib devices on our street and while taking instructions in CPR and the use of the devices, we were told that emergency vehicles can get to where assistance is needed, fairly quickly, a matter of minutes. Lights and sirens help alert motorists to get the heck out of the way. Generally people do, but there are a few that either can't see or hear....they can cause problems. If everyone moves out of the way of emergency vehicles, the roundabouts aren't much of a problem. EMT's get where needed, quickly, Mom in law needed them this summer. They were there before I could get over to her house and she lives very close to us...and they had 3 roundabouts to navigate on the way.
