C'mon, do you really think the State of New Hampshire wouldn't know how to design and build one of these traffic circles?
It's not rocket science to safely negotiate one, either.
Slow down, pay attention, and all will be well.

I have to disagree. I'm a very good driver, but this particular traffic circle makes me nervous. Someone's going to get hurt here. The circle is tiny and very narrow, and the curbs are high and steep. Hit one of those and you'll blow a tire for sure. I drive through rotaries every day at home (and yes, I know this is a "roundabout") and most often - not always, but usually - they work well. But this one is different. It strikes me as very poorly designed, something we will complain about for years to come.
Drive it once or twice before you put so much faith in NH's traffic engineers and so little faith in the people here who are telling you that it is dangerous.
