    you would think they'd learn from the mistakes of others...clearly, no one has.

    Now I can see why cities built in the last 100 years tend to be laid out in nice boring grids.

    This is why i think round-a-bouts in America are stupid. hasn't history taught us anything.

    I have never understood how roundabouts are such a great thing. Of course, this could happen in any intersection with enough idiots around...

    These make my brain hurt, just a little bit. There is a reason I avoid city driving if at all humanly possible.

    Seeing things like this makes me want to ride my bike everywhere. At least then my only problem would either be a fast death of geting hit by one of these crazed motorist or a slow death of constantly breathing in exhaust fumes.

    I can't understand why Mexico City wasn't included. Just pick any intersection there.

    There is no way I'd be able to function in that kind of environment. Who would want to? Where are all those people going, and is it really all that important, to brave something like that?

    i produce traffic hits for WHIO in dayton, and man o man.. if there were any roundabouts here, i would probably quit my job. it's bad enough with people smacking into each other in single-lane intersections..

    Oh, thank heavens I live in a small town with little to no traffic. If I had to live thru that I'd likely shoot someone.

    I am so glad that I live in a small town(Enterprise,AL.)!!! I would definately have road rage if I drove through there daily!
