To answer, or add to Bonanza's thought... We do have to get out of our neighborhoods. But if they removed the roundabouts (although I know this will never happen) and put a traffic signal in every so often, it would create gaps in the constant stream of traffic so you could turn onto Morse and Buena Vista. Just like they have on 466 & 466A.
I think the biggest problem with the roundabouts is the average age of the drivers. They're either confused, oblivious, or arrogant. And it's not just newbies. My husband was riding with a longtime resident yesterday who totally mis-navigated the roundabout, almost got t-boned, and yelled at the other driver, who was doing the right thing.
