The only issue I have with the roundabouts is when I am cycling. Several of the Villages have a large monument sign that partially blocks the view of cars about to enter the roundabout. On more than one occasion, I have been in the roundabout (right most lane) and someone comes zipping out of a Village and doesn't see me because of the monument sign blocked there view of me at just the right moment (and they were also driving to fast). The monument signs should be relocated so they don't block the view of cyclists/cars in the roundabout.

I didn't realize these signs where so hard to understand. |

Wow....didn't realize the roundabouts were so complicated. I must be doing something wrong since I find them easy to navigate......there are only two lanes and even I can remember the rules for two lanes. On a serious note, there is a town in WI, Oshkosh, that gets up to 500,000 visitors in one week in the summer. They had traffic lights. As the town expanded they removed a bunch of the lights and installed roundabouts. Traffic moves where gridlock had existed. Not having traffic move reasonably quickly is not an option for me.

My son was driving us through Edinburgh (Scotland) First day driving on the left and first roundabout: He noticed a woman with a baby carriage in the street on the far side of the roundabout and quickly yelled out the window "Watch out, I'm American!" He navigated the roundabout OK but the woman scurried away
