Re: "Oh, good, I have a round about. HERE THEY HAVE ROUNDABOUTS. OMG, have you ever gotten caught in a roundabout?"

Within a week of our move North, my wife was in a Roundabout and hit another car. Now, my wife did the hitting. I was there and there was no question about that. I was sure we would be found at fault. But the police officer (and a witness) determined that it was the other driver's fault because we were in the inside lane, changing to the outside lane and the other driver had no business being there. (The other driver was traveling very fast, essentially passing us, according to the witness.)
`
The other driver's insurance company paid for our repairs. Huh. Who'da figured? Roundabout rules are complicated. I'm still not sure I understand them. I just check and double check when I'm in them before I do any lane changing... and I never knowingly drive alongside anyone else.
`
fyi... when you're in a Roundabout and in the outside lane, you are expected to take the next turnoff. If you don't and someone hits you, it's your fault. That's why you need to get into the inside lane when you enter the thing.

Hon, I see both pictures when you post De's messages.

Oh, good, I have a round about. HERE THEY HAVE ROUNDABOUTS. OMG, have you ever gotten caught in a roundabout?

Well, guess who drove around this 'bout thing for an hour?

Somebody else.

I could never do that.

We had them in NJ, too.

They were called, "circles."

The person who thought of that name was GENIUS!

They took them all out.

No shid. Too many accidents.

roundabouts - my ass.
