There’s a million things Americans can’t comprehend. Not licking billionaire’s boots, for one
In Taiwan, we do roundabouts all wrong. We add traffic lights in the middle of them.
They’ve started using traffic circles in my state. They work sooo much better than traffic lights at intersections.
Roundabouts are even better.
I love roundabouts, but goddamn are they annoying when you’re stuck in a route starvation situation. I’ve had bad days when I’m stuck for close to 5 minutes at one near my house depending on time of day and approach route.
Sounds like you need a 2-laner and drivers who understand how they work
It’s already a 2/2.5 lane roundabout, but if you’re on entrance 3, while 1 and 2 are busy as hell, you may not have a window to safely go through.
This roundabout is at a major intersection just off of a freeway and between like 3 different shopping centers, so it’s awful to go through at rush hour. I’ve gotten good at eyeballing windows that scare the piss out of my wife in that roundabout.
I mean sure, but I’ve been stuck at lights that long too
I didn’t realize there was a difference
Traffic circles are not real roundabouts. They are just a road that have a circle shape. For example traffic circles often have traffic lights.
Roundabouts are traffic circles. But they have to be just a circle with “give way” at the entrance. No stop signs, no traffic lights.

It’s actually illegal to drive a car without the purpose of reaching a destination in Germany.
So do Americans.
Can easily do this around the Arc of Triumph

do germans move their cars like the flintstones or how do they manage to have fuel/battery for 74hrs?
Their cars run off centrifugal force.
There’s a few diesel cars that can reach that distance on one tank (though it requires hypermiling)
Two words: German Efficiency
I hear their gas devices are very efficient.
Gassing out your soldiers during the first deployment of chemical weapons because you forgot about the wind is less than impressive.
Since you’re in a roundabout, you just need a large funnel into the gas tank. Every time around, someone standing at the side pours a bit of fuel in while you pass, so you get a splash of fuel per lap!
Mr bean, is that you?
You guys are gonna love canberra
American here, kills me every time it’s not that difficult!
We have one of these in rural middle of bum fucked and nowhere America.

Is there a joke I’m missing out on?
Don’t even have any nice landmarks on the drive, like Big Ben.
I navigate by Walmarts
