If something needs to change with roundabouts, let's back it up with data. So far, all research I find, even internationally, granted it's highly technical and contains formulas I don't understand, but the data supports roundabouts as a safer option than stops and highly recommended option.

but something is missing when there are numerous accidents here, no one agrees on rules, deputies throw up their hands, the regulations to not change lanes conflict with the resident lane designation...I'm not done, Bogie.

Keep researching till you find a study of roundabout drivers, all of whom are over 55 and each one of whom is from a different part of the country!

I agree with your last paragraph, fer sure.
