My husband sent this to me the other day. Swindon, I am told, is a place very much like hell and this the Magic Roundabout is one of its levels. :lol:

We have round abouts where I live (put in about 5 years ago) but nothing like that. People don't even know how to drive on the ones we do have so something like that would be a disaster. I actually prefer the round abouts over the traffic lights we used to have as traffic moves faster now.

I agree, I actually like rotaries.  I was first introduced to them as a driver back in the 1980s when I started college in Michigan.  It is interesting, the university I went to probably had the only roundabouts in Michigan, and now I see them all over the place, but the university took them out.

Me? I'm an okay vintage I think. The Nissan was a little newer, 1997, but definitely used when I got it.
