And for the guys shouting that there ar no roundabouts in the developed world it looks like they are just warming up. They are just beginning to use them.


Of the two links you've provided, i've read one and it's against roundabouts. And i personally i'm not shouting,all i'm saying most of the developed world don't use them. That's not to say they don't have a single roundabout.

@mkeiyd; when you say "most of the developed world" which countries are you actually referring to? Can you list the ones that you are actually CERTAIN about? Certainty proven by having visited and lived long enough to make the observation.
Nothing is real unless it can be named; nothing has value unless it can be sold; money is worthless unless you spend it.

Japan[visited], Taiwan[visited],UAE [Dubai]visited,South Korea [lived]. Russia [St. Petersberg n Moscow] guys from there who've told me they don't have roundabouts.
The mega cities n future cities documentaries, of all the cities they featured, i never saw one with roundabouts.

You spend a day in Nairobi n you see numerous roundabouts. The places above you won't see a roundabout n if you do, it would be a preservation of some monument/history.
Which developed world has roundabouts if you take out UK?

There are roundabouts in the US. Some cities in Minnesota are replacing intersections in residential areas that don't have busy traffic. Intersections require cars coming to a full stop (if you follow the rules) and the first driver to the intersection has right of way. Roundabouts allow drivers to proceed without stopping if there is no other vehicle in the roundabout. Traffic flows more smoothly. Busy highways still use the intersection/traffic lights model.
First time in history we can save the human race by laying in front of the TV and doing nothing. Let's not screw it up
