LOL wtf. They made a traffic circle, and then said 'fuck it, they'll never get it right'

I learned from Real Civil Engineer that these are called "hamburger roundabouts." According to the OSM wiki, "throughabout" is another name for them.

That is no where near the worst traffic circle in NJ. There was one way worse near where I lived. It had like 3 lanes and a stop sign that gave priority to people entering the circle vs people already in it. I've heard of so many crashes happening there

Fun fact: the main difference between "traffic circles" (which are terrible) and "modern roundabouts" (which are much better, although still not so great for pedestrians and cyclists) is that the former gives entering traffic priority while the latter gives people already in it priority.

And in America, there would be no difference, because over here it's "everybody always go, at all times, and give the finger to everybody else".

Remember, when you're driving, facts and laws don't matter. You're ALWAYS right. And if anyone, ANYONE AT ALL, tries to challenge that, you pull out one of your many pants guns.
