why are these a good idea? 1 lane roundabouts are great and are basically idiot proof, but what the fuck is this 2 lane mental retardation?
uh oh, mutt melty
>>29148547That's not even correct.
Skill issue.
>>29148555what the hell is that.
>>29148547Two lane roundabouts confuse low iq monkeys. I witness their struggle almost every day and some deserve an ass whooping.
>>29148549that's how it's done in oz too. there are some deviations but really...just do what the arrows on each lane say you can do.
>>29148559it's bongland's Magic Roundabout. Looks chaotic but apparently precisely because of that, people actually drive cautiously, and it's surprisingly smooth because everyone just follows the same basic set of road rules for roundabouts.
>>29148549Post the "correct" from the shithole you call home
>>29148555What the fug
They just put one in near me, too new to show on the google maps satellite. It's a one-lane but there's a 1/4 section with a second lane for people turning the next right to bypass.It's been a real shitshow - my city is almost entirely black people and rednecks, they can't handle it.
>>29148547>yielding>lane disciplineI can count on one hand the number of countries who can comprehend these concepts and none of them speak english.
>>29148547>it's another episode of "mutts are confused and enraged by roundabouts"All you have to do is get it out of your head any retarded ideas you mutts have about YIELDING TO EXITYou yield when you enter the roundabout, the lines are drawn so you're crossing the dotted lines when you enter.When you exit the roundabout the lines are drawn to show that you're NOT CROSSING ANY LANES so there is no yielding when you exit.
>>29148670>there's no English speaking countries who can successfully navigate roundaboutsyeah nah cunt
>>291485472 lane is pretty simple honestly. You go in the right lane if you want to turn right. You go in the left lane if you want to turn left. You can be in either lane if you want to go straight.
>>29148673>Left-hand trafficOh no, it's retarded
>>29148686>ummmm akshually sweaty that's the wrong side because..... WELL IT JUST IS OKAY!??!??!?!yep it's a mutt thread
>>29148684>mutts reading this
>>29148694>>29148695>Australians lash out when they learn that the colonies didn't fall for the roundabout meme the way Jolly Old England did
>>29148565>can't enter roundabout until both lanes are clear>dotted white line but you can't change lanes in the roundabout>right lane can only turn right or go straight>left lane can only "turn left" (which cuts across a dotted line) or u turnit makes absolutely no sense. yes, i can memorize the rules and follow them, but intuitively it's a fucking retarded traffic pattern dreamed up by a massive retard. single lane roundabouts make sense, 2+ lane roundabouts make no sense.
>>29148705Double digit troglodytes can navigate a 2+ roundabout with ease in my cunt, what the fuck is your excuse?
>>29148705It makes perfect sense you just need enough IQ to extrapolate the outcomes which result from those rules.
>>29148716>dotted white line but you can't change lanes in the roundabout>left lane can only "turn left" (which cuts across a dotted line)intuitively it makes no sense.
>>29148720Yes like I said you need to stop using your intuiting and start using your logic to extrapolate the outcomes produced by these rules.
>>29148705Low iq monkeys have difficulty navigating two lanes because a roundabout cannot have an inside and an outside lade. An additional lane confuses their ooga booga brain because that is just too much unpredictable traffic for them.
>>29148705>can't enter roundabout until both lanes are clear Not a hard task for UDM
>>29148673>get it out of your head any retarded ideas you mutts have about YIELDING TO EXITwhat happens when someone is in the outer lane when you want to exit from the inner lane?
>>29148547they work if you aren't retarded but unfortunately most people are retarded>>29148555is that REALLY a roundabout anymore though? it's more of a series of normal uncontrolled intersections just right next to eachother
>>29148759Look at the configuration of the linesLook at the arrows in the OPIt's not possible to have a conflict between the exiting inner lane and the outter lane, because the outter lane is not permitted to continue turning around the roundabout - it's only allowed to go straight or turn at the first exit. This simple rule, which confuses and enrages the mutt mind, is the difference between having a retarded confusing roundabout which everyone hates, and having a simple functional roundabout which even women and browns can easily navigate.
>>29148759it's not permitted so if that happens you wreck and get sued
>>29148769>>29148779What if I don't want to wreck?
>>29148783you yield to showever is already in the roundabout so you come to a full stop and check for a space to get in
>>29148783>red crosses a dotted line infront of another car without yieldingI told you to look at the configuration of the lines niggerYield to enter, not to exit - this simple rule solves all roundabout confusion and enrages the mutt mind.
I grew up in Europe, but am American.Americans do not trust one another. That may actually be construed as intelligent for the individual while it may slow things on a community level. We also do not trust the police to make the right call or help in any way.I know how a roundabout works, but does LaTonda? My city is 2/3rds black, I'd hesitate at a roundabout too if there was traffic. Sometimes, your car can get totaled and you can be maimed even when you did the right thing.
>>29148786>>29148787To me this is like saying you don't have to look when the light turns green because red means stop so the other cars have to stop. It works until it doesn't.
>>29148786What if I don't want to yield? I have to get to work. I don't have time to be driving in circles all day.
>>29148790>>29148791>those rules don't work because what happens if people don't follow the rules?!?!?mutt mind
>>29148790>Exactly.You think "why would someone run a red" until they do and your wife is bleeding out to death next to you.There are no high-trust societies left other than maybe Japan. I would trust a rando in a street race more than a rando in a multi-lane roundabout.
>>29148796Clearly we should just ban cars, then. If we can't trust the population with them, why are they even allowed at all?
>>29148783>>29148790HOLY SHIT BROST-INTERSECTIONS DON'T WORKLOOK WHAT HAPPENS IF A DRIVER DOESN'T YIELD AT A T-INTERSECTION!!!!!!!WE HAVE TO REMOVE ALL THE T-INTERSECTIONS THEY ARE TOO DANGEROUS
>>29148810We won WWI and II in part to our car infrastructure.Look, I think roundabouts make sense. But my last two cars were totalled by teenagers on their phones. Manual RWD enthusiast meme cars, just deleted. One of those times I was stopped at a red and got rear-ended but the cops sided with the poor miserable teenage girl.I get it, roundabouts can work... but again, my city is 2/3rds black and one of the lowest-eductated places in the first world.
>>29148819>my car got totalled at a stoplight>this is why roundabouts are too dangerous
>>29148823I mentioned it was because of trust of other people that roundabouts fail in the US in my post before that and gave that example as to how fucked the trust situation is on the road. Reading comprehension is harder than picking out one phrase in a vacuum to poke holes at.
>>29148827So roundabouts aren't for mutts, they're only for white people
>>29148819>We won WWI and II in part to our car infrastructure.easily one of the most retarded statements i've read in several minutes
>>29148829Goatse is a roundabout
>>29148829Yeah sure, you can take it that way if that makes you feel better about yourself. I don't trust other white people either though despite growing up in picrel.
>>29148831Is it? We didn't have the internet back then. Even information could be transferred faster because of our road system. Plus chemicals and food. It wasn't a small factor.
>>29148833and yet white countries have none of the problems you've described with their roundabouts
>>29148836>homeboy forgot about rail>homeboy forgot about the telegraph>homeboy forgot about radio>homeboy forgot that WWII was not fought within the united states
>>29148637non retarded planners would have the bypass separate from the roundabout entirely
>>29148874You can't ignore that us having a better transport system wasn't a big deal.All of the things you said were factors, but so was the ability to have people get to work and the transport of commodities and information. Also, a fed population is more willing to fight than a starving one.
>>29148885jug handles are satanic and you should be exiled to New Jersey for your insolence
>>29148886>willing to fightTHEY HAD CONSCRIPTIONoml americans are so fucking retarded
>>29148891Yeah, well, we won.
>>29148779You would probably stop breathing if your government said they need to control it
>>29148891Conscription reduces willingness to fight.
Picrel is a good exampleThe lanes automatically spread outside>next exit right line>2nd exit middle lane>3rd exit left laneSo you just get in the correct lane and you end up leaving where you want to go without having to change lanes inside the roundabout
>>29148547Only problem I ever see with them is tards in the right lane trying to go left even though their only options are right or straight. Had a close call from someone trying that once. We have a DOUBLE two lane roundabout here. A two lane roundabout leading directly into another two lane roundabout. It's madness.
>>29148547> right lane goes straight > left lane goes straight > enter roundabout in right lane - full speed> turn on left blinker> drive straight racing line through turn> enter left lane but ok since blinker> turn on right blinker at apex> exit accelerating in right laneAll perfectly legal as far as I can tell
>>29149128The mutt mind at work
>>29149129Ok, how am I wrong with regards to the OPs illustration? The dashed lanes make this legal, minus speed limits. It’s uncouth and you don’t like it, but legal by the way that’s drawn up.
The problem with roundabouts is that as a concept it relies on drivers who are taught to be defensive to begin with. When you don't have that they don't work. Here in bongland drivers are taught to be defensive, but there is a massive amount of drivers who are not taught defensively because they have loicenses from abroad, and because of that there are always a ton of accidents at roundabouts. It's gotten to a point where you are taught as a new driver to constantly watchout for lane cutters at roundabouts when spiraling out despite already being in a correct lane because drivers below 80 IQ don't understand that you have to pre-plan placement up to a roundabout and just cut from lane to lane.When you have demographics like that you NEED intersections to deal with people unable to process pre-planning beyond "red stop, green go".
>>29149128You use blinker on exit, not during. Changing lanes like that would be classed as reckless driving
>>29149128mutts are obsessed with changing lanes inside roundabouts for some reasonall you have to do is just NOT change lanes inside the roundabout and everything makes sense and works perfectly and everybody happily commutes with less stopping time than a traffic lightbut mutts just can't do it, they see a roundabout and their mind compulsively jumps straight into:>but what if I changed lanes inside the roundabout
>>29148783lmao, im using this as bait next thread
>>29149147>what if i turn left in a straight only laneWE GAAAAAAAA-
>>29149160stop I feel bad everytime I laugh at those guys
>>29148547red car wanting to drive to the exit on the left kills everyone
>>29149174trolling is banned outside of /b/
>>29149174hey what does that writing next to the red car say?I bet it's something important but unfortunately I can't read so I guess I'll never know....
>>29149174no hes right, thats why you gotta be careful near any airports where americans might be coming from, they will just fucking plow through that minivan of 8 and wipe out an entire family tree
>>29148810I am 100% in favor of making it harder to get a drivers license.
>>29149207wonder what this signs all about thenmight be something in that
>>29149210>that 65 IQ civil engineer who designates a traffic sign meant for both lanes on the left side and not both sides because it saves $150 on a $15 million project
>>29149210evidently it didn't work
>>29148547If one or more of the roads the roundabout services is 2 lanes, then the roundabout has to be 2 lanes as well or else it becomes a massive bottleneck.
>>29149215There's big white arrows on the road bud and quite possibly another sign on the other side too.Many times ITT we've come to the conclusion that roundabouts are simply; only for white people.
>>29148789Im a Slovenian but have an american mindset. Its really hard for me to trust other people in traffic.
>>29148819how could cops side with someone who did the rear ending? that’s at fault by definition
>>29149310>how could a lazy 60 IQ retard (who is literally above the law in all except the most extreme cases of abuse) deliberately or mistakenly not do his job
>>29148547>Panicking over Easy Modo 2-land roundaboutMeanwhile, the britbongs are putting in 3-lane and 4-lane roundabouts with spiralling lanes - i.e. you start in the inside lane, and by the time you reach the exit that's painted on the lane you entered, that lane has moved to the outside lane.
>>29149543This is really good since it forces you to peel the lanes.
Meanwhile, 4 lanes roundabout with no fancy exit lanes or arrows are common as shit where I live and everyone navigate them without issue.
>>29150018are you sure they don't have arrows bud
>>29150022They don't. They're concentric lanes and you have to cross through from the inside to get out. It's not rocket science.
>>29150151show me
Roundabouts are comfy if number of entrance lanes match number of exit lanes everywhere. And roundabout is not in the shape that allows idiots blasting through full speed if it's a small roundabout.But in my retarded ass country some roundabouts can have fewer lanes for exit than there were for an entrance. This then causes weird issues that inner lane has to wait on cars in outer one to exit properly, so you need to either stop in middle of roundabout or go for another full circle. And this also promotes retarded behavior that many people hog the outer lane even though they need something like 3rd exit. Plus then everyone drives too fast in the roundabout trying to stay away from other cars, leading to people doing sharp exits which is a trouble for anyone behind if they decide to slam on the brakes or otherwise the pedestrians to whom you are supposed to yield after turning.
