Before and After Roundabouts

U.S. engineers typically dismiss roundabouts as inappropriate and dangerous for high-speed roads, despite statistics proving the exact opposite is true. This reaction is not based on experience with roundabouts, historical data or research, but rather on misconception, often based on poor experiences with the traditional traffic circle.
