Comment on Are most people who avoid turn signals do it to feel more normal? (Imitating their parents, avoiding perceived stupidity of using turn signals when it seems useless, etc)

I think not knowing how roundabouts work is all over the US. Here is my part of the country they put up stop signs at the roundabouts—does it not occur to them that it defeats the entire purpose of having it?

If you ever go to Tijuana though they can be a lot of fun.

I dunno that stop sign would totally defeat the purpose.

Part of why roundabouts work is that everyone is basically turning right to enter and right again to exit, meaning none of the traffic streams actually cross.

Stop signs would slow it down, but not by much. At least, not for the smaller things.

My biggest issue with people here is the frequency they wait for it to be completely clear before going, or the idiots trying to drift around it because, hey, that’s actually fun.
