Having lived in England for awhile, where they despise the idea of stop signs , I must say that I'm a big fan of roundabouts. Especially the large, multi-lane types that you can safely navigate at 40+ MPH. Imagine if every intersection allowed the option of not stopping if no other cars (with the right of way) were present. That's how it is with roundabouts.
People around here really should learn how to use them. No lie, I saw someone stop and back up after she missed her turn on the Auburn NH roundabout once.
