Roundabouts.

I will never understand why so many U.S. drivers get annoyed by roundabouts. The manage traffic very well and are simple to navigate. They reduce rear-end collisions and pedestrian incidents, there’s less emissions from folks sitting at a red light, and their design is optimal for traffic calming measures.

Unlike their old school traffic circle and rotary counterparts, roundabouts are a slow speed, simple way to manage traffic at an intersection. They’re not complicated and they’re not scary.

I would really like to see more roundabouts and less traffic lights in the United States, but drivers seem unreasonably opposed to them.
