Not all round abouts are made correctly


if the right turn lane is a continuous second lane, then yeah that is dumb. That just invites accidents and jams.

Similarly, I despise round abouts that are too small. There needs to be enough space for a new car to pull into the round about even when other cars are already there. Without enough space it just gets backed up waiting for people to enter. And nobody ever signals when leaving one so it becomes a guessing game whether that car close to you is going to keep coming or turn.
