What is so difficult about traffic circles???

HOW HARD IS IT.
I’m looking at you, minivan barreling through the traffic circle in Urbana today, completely ignoring the yield sign.
If you are approaching the circle, you yield to the traffic in it! No matter what!
I would love to know how many accidents stem from people not understanding the basic rules of traffic circles.

Preach, Sister!!!

And what about literally every idiot driving northbound on CT Ave entering Chevy Chase Circle from the left lane who veer into the middle lane of the circle every single time?

I think Chevy chase circle has several accidents a day. I wish they would make a tunnel under it like DuPont! Idiots fly southbound on Connecticut and don’t yield. It’s insane

Sounds like YOU don’t know how to use a circle, OP.

Every traffic circle in the dmv. too many cars for when they were designed and no one is going the speed limit.

Traffic circles are designed for horse and buggy going 15 mph and even then there were lots of accidents. Pierre L’Enfant designed DC in the 18th century.

Eh. Most people don’t encounter them and don’t know how to handle them. I grew up here, so they’re NBD to me, but DH, who is a great driver, still hates them.

British roundabouts, though—that’s another level!

Do you go left or right at a traffic circle?

Just drive straight through. Don't mind the bump as you go over the island.

That one is uniquely confusing and the markings are faded to nonexistent.
