And build this 128-way, 64-direction stack interchange. It'll fix traffic bro, trust me.

Y'all will do literally anything to avoid a roundabout

There are roundabouts all over the US. Our capitol has roundabouts. Small towns in the mountain west have roundabouts. Medium and large cities have roundabouts. In Massachusetts they have roundabouts but call them rotaries. In some places they call it a traffic circle.

We have no shortage of roundabouts here. If were avoidant of anything its light rail systems

OHDoT is installing tons of roundabouts at rural intersections and it is so funny listening to locals bitch and moan about them. They aren't hard, y'all are just morons.

Oh man this reminds of when I lived in a somewhat rural town in northern CA. Someone complained in the paper about the new roundabouts calling it "creeping European socialism"

Massachusetts also has this, note that every part where a road intersects here has it's own light signal

it's also right next to a major train stop and there's no pedestrian walk waysor anything
