      Of course I know how to use a roundabout! Step one: close eyes Step two: floor it Step three: pray Works every time!

          I’ve seen the end result of someone trying to use a roundabout as a launch ramp. I don’t think their car, stuck in the middle of the roundabout, survived.

            We have a roundabout with a pond. The ducks like it, and they’re really disturbed

      I learned to drive in a town where the on ramp to the highway came out of a roundabout so I actually did some learning! :)
