Recommended Posts

Not funny or cute but very interesting. The actual numbers proving why roundabouts/traffic circles are better than traditional intersections.

 

- A 37 percent reduction in overall collisions

- A 75 percent reduction in injury collisions

- A 90 percent reduction in fatality collisions

- A 40 percent reduction in pedestrian collisions
