It's a "traffic calming" device devised by the new urbanists and endorsed by the U.N. in its Agenda 21.

Save them for Europe, we don't need any U.N. crap over here. They need to move their congregation elsewhere also.

Awww shuddup. You don’t have to stop to drive through a roundabout. Traffic lights are really stupid.

Traffic circles are certainly not new. There was a traffic circle in Bellaire Texas where I grew up in the 40’s. Two streets, Bellaire Blvd and Bissonette, crossed at a very odd angle and the circle was perfect. Years later they tore it up and replaced it with the most awful and confusing intersection, they should have left the circle alone.
