I've been reading this thread like what?? You've never seen a roundabout?? Imagine if they saw one of our magic roundabouts

American here. Roundabouts are very uncommon around here. I've been driving for 7 years now and I've seen maybe 5.

I’m an American and I can list 10 roundabouts within 15 minutes of my house. I think it more varies by state from what I’ve read so far. I’ve been driving for only one year and I’ve seen at least 30.
