How may accidents in roundabouts in the last year, last 5 years, last 10 years??? I'm guessing less than all the intersections on Morse Blvd & Buena Vista Blvd combined.
Much adieu about nothing!

On most TV traffic circles, you have 4 opportunities to change lanes within the circles...Do you even understand what a broken white line signifies? It makes more sense to signal when entering the circle since you are lane changing (have a broken white line in front of you and a yield sign). By law, you only have to signal lane changes...When you exit the circle, you are not lane changing...Just look at the road markings!

It's like you forgot how to read road markings.

It boldly states .... DO NOT CHANGE LANES
Also... when you have passed the last exit before the one you want, use your right turn signal and continue to use through your exit.

:bigbow:

It's too bad the actual circle markings don't match the district instructions. It adds to the ambiguity and make it dangerous when multiple folks are trying to follow multiple and conflicting suggestions on best way to deal with circles. And countless newcomers are completely baffled by the circles in spite of the admonishment to read the sign. Drive carefully folks - it's dangerous out there.

On a slightly different topic, is it still ok for me to drive my golf cart from Brownwood to Fenney? I get strange looks from other drivers on 468.

This is even more believable than some of the above posts.:coolsmiley:

And then there's...


Ambiguity (poke here)



:ho:

My last post on the subject.

You sir/madam are a danger to all road users, either in your car, or posting on this board!

Here in The Villages, you do not change lanes in roundabouts. https://www.districtgov.org/communit...t-02-08-12.pdf

How do you exit the circle at 3/4? Do you have a flying car?

Back to cart driving on 468".........

Ok,I’ll bit, you stay in the outside or inside lane and move to the exit in that lane. The right lane has to yield if going straight or beside car in left lane, which shouldn’t be in that spot if they entered the roundabout properly by yielding to traffic in the roundabout cause the guy in left lane going to second or third exit. So, If the right lane entered with the left lane car he has to exit at the first or second exit therefore being in the right lane to exit. Clean as mud right. O I failed to mention USE YOU'RE blinker light so the cars trying to enter know when you are exiting. This allow the traffic to flow and not STOP cause the don’t know the dummy going that don’t us blinker light:popcorn:

It’s sign show a roundabout ahead, not for explicit direction flow which the other sign shows. IMO they need to just put up the directional flow sign and toss the roundabout coming soon sign.

The point is...The inside lane has to cross the outside lane in order to exit.

Note to retirement community developers - Don't ever build 2-lane traffic circles.
