Theres on at Blue Mountain up here in Ontario, its fun when you dont get stuck behind someone too scared to enter, or when then snow banks arent so high you cant see people coming. I would say when I use it, 50% of the people go through like they have no idea what they’re doing. ---

I try not to use the word hate too much but, I HATE sitting at red lights. Red lights also encourage teenaged girls to sit and text while the light turned green 5 seconds ago!!! ---

I love roundabouts as I find them far easier and safer than stop signs. Traffic flows better as well. They work very well in England and the rest of the world. ---
