Comment on Could you stay in the roundabout indefinitely?

You’d need to refuel at some point and I expect that refuelling whilst in motion would probably hit some legal issues.

And then, assuming that you overcame that, in the UK at least, you’d need at MOT test at some point, which would have to be at an approved test centre, so 3 years at the absolute max - although I expect tyres etc would need attention before that.

If jets can refuel mid-flight, I'd think a similar solution should be even easier for a much-slower car.

  Nearly had it on The Grand Tour, just a few kinks to work out in the design. Might not work so great in a roundabout though

    The Motorway InterLane Fuelling system is an invention ahead of its time.

I'm hearing that there's a need for gas / petrol / whatever stations in more roundabouts. Maybe even a rest stop or extended stay hotel.
