You’re not getting it. The cart wasn’t in the roundabout, it was on the cart path that is parallel to the roundabout. When it started to cross El Camino it was T-Boned by the car that exited without signaling.

Oh, I didn't realize that you had changed the topic from general roundabout safety to a very specific case that pertains to only one roundabout that I am aware of. In this specific case, I would agree with you that the design is awful and that no amount of policing would make it truly safe.

Now, back to the general topic of roundabout safety.

I think the both of you, njblue and ed, should get a copy of the brochure and go down to Cody's outside bar and discuss this topic over a pither of beer.

This roundabout "discussion" is making me dizzy.
Bottom line...always think that the other drivers don't know what their doing.

I think we should debate what a pither of beer is.

I think your spelling was quite correct..at least phonetically...that is how it is pronounced after the 1st pither of beer
