And for the people who think that they should all be one lane, imagine all the problems with cars merging from two lanes into one. That would be far worse than what we have now. Roundabouts are a safe and efficient way of handling the many intersection we have on our main roads.

I don't wish to doubt you, but a 466 &BV or 466A & Morse"few" accidents every week? In that one roundabout? How did you hear about all of these accidents that are occurring throughout the week?

Give it up!

Well, they got the dogs out of the postal centers, didn't they? They got a wall removed, didn't they?

Maybe we're there at different times. I go through at "rush hour" in the a.m. and two more times during the day. I see at least one a week, sometimes two. More than I see at 466A and BV and 466A Morse, combined, although the ones there tend to be more noticeable.

However, full disclosure: my husband disagrees with me.:boxing2:
