  • shit, don't americans have roundabouts in the states? no seriously, i want to know.

  • yes we do have round abouts in the US but nothing like this one. I call this a square about. If you take a look, there is a stop light at one end. The flow of traffic is 2 ways, plus you have a zebra crossing. Now how can this THING-- ROUNDABOUT SQUARE ABOUT HELP THE FLOW OF TRAFFIC. I would love to see a american 16 wheeler try to get around this

  • Thats one thing about this round about--- it had stop lights going into it, plus the zebra crossing. round abouts do work, but this one is out of the norm.

  • LOLL its amazinly funny how amreicans react to English roundabouts its pefectly normal over here

  • My God how could you say that? Roundabouts are a Godsend!

    Constant movement of traffic as oppose to waiting at annoying traffic lights. Now take your pick.

    BTW that roundabout in the video is rare - it's called a "Magic roundabout" - wonderful piece of art. Too bad we don't have them in New Zealand LOL.

  • @outfromtheshadows he didn't elongate his E that much! lol

  • @kellykellykellkell not like that! and we mostly call them traffic circles here

  • Haha, have a go at Hanger Lane Gyratory in west London where the A406 and A40 cross each other. That is the mother of all road junctions. Eight lanes, eight exits and ten-thousand bad-tempered motorists every hour...

  • If you want roundabouts go to Skelmersdale.

  • i have witnessed an american trying to get through oxford. it was freaking hilarious.

  • Zeeeeeeeeebra crossing! lol

  • You're in Swindon it seems.

  • where i live in the uk theres a roundabout thats in the middle of one road but dosent go anywhere else (i think they are called something else?). so you have to go around it to carry on going down the road and theres no other roads attached to it. its on some small suburban street.
