| hehe | ||||||
| Holy crap...silly brits. | ||||||
| Ridin Spinnas! | ||||||
| is that real? lol what dumbass thought that up (Of course you cant really speed in streets like that so maybe its a good idea?lol) | ||||||
| wow I'd hate trying to give someone directions thru that! | ||||||
| huh? ... retarded | ||||||
| Haha, I hate those huge traffic circles that they have to drive though. | ||||||
| ...Wow. | ||||||
| for some reason, seeing that makes me think of the birds eye view maps from contra III for snes. | ||||||
| There's some around where I live. They work for small residential intersections, but I'd hate to see one on an onramp or a major intersection. | ||||||
| Brit Trivia: No one born in Norfolk can use a simple roundabout, let alone this monstrosity. | ||||||
| that is the MOTHER of all roundabouts, and believe me I've seen some horrendous ones too. | ||||||
| Wow. | ||||||
| looks like fun | ||||||
| NOOOOOOOOO | ||||||
| ...wow... | ||||||
| 5 for no tophat, stupid stereotypical accent, crumpets, tea, bad teeth and spotted dick. | ||||||
| yup, that about sums it up. | ||||||
| lol, traffic circles | ||||||
| Take a right, no left, no continue right, no turn around...all the way around, now left... | ||||||
| 5 for picture, as it confused me. -2 because you didn't use "Roundabout" by Yes. | ||||||
| LOL! thats taking it too far.. can i suggest some faster/more hyperactive music though? just might be a little more fitting | ||||||
| Actually, giving directions on this would be easy, simply specify an exit and anyone with half a brain could make their way to the required exit. | ||||||
| "Look, kids! Big Ben! Parliament!" | ||||||
| Whoa.. I've read jokes in British humor cracking jokes at some of the roadways but... is this real? | ||||||
| True. As an Englishman myself, there are loads of these around - I live near to one. | ||||||
| that yellow van just has to be breaking some law. it has to be.. | ||||||
| Jee-zus! Good thing they don't have those in the states, people are WAY too stupid to use a roundabout, let alone the SUPER-world-ending roundabout seen here. | ||||||
| @knapkinfish: More like "Look, kids! Big Ben! Parliament! Big Ben! Parliament! Big Ben! Parliament! Big Ben! Parliament! Big Ben! Parliament! Big Ben! oh shi-*vomits*" | ||||||
| I've heared stories of americans just driving over them then trying to claim diplomatic immunity (even though they aren't diplomats, though some are) | ||||||
| Its like some kind of wierd puzzle. Oh and yeah theres too many bad drivers over here in the states, so roundabouts would be suicide :( | ||||||
| Yeah, they exist. I havent had to drive around one, luckily. Roundabouts arent that hard to grasp, no more complex than some traffic lights, easier maybe, but... that looks like it could eat me alive! | ||||||
| How the heck do Brits tolerate that crap? | ||||||
| Look kids! Big Ben, Parliament. | ||||||
| damn commies, always driving n the wrong side | ||||||
| oh god, why??? | ||||||
| search "magic roundabout swindon" basically 5 roads connected by 5 roundabouts. you took the worst picture. street signs warn you about it long time before :) | ||||||
| We have one in my town and I live in the US | ||||||
| Wow. super über hacks. | ||||||
| get a new sound for a five | ||||||
| Just drive over them lol | ||||||
| our poor roads :( | ||||||
| PHEAR OUR LEET BRITISH ROADS | ||||||
| Yes, Becase England has SOO many Roundabouts - Never mind Scotland, Wales or Northern Ireland - So many Igonarant Bastards around today.. | ||||||
| Go look at india... | ||||||
| Are you sure that's not just some kind of modern art installation? | ||||||
| I like it. | ||||||
| I'd like to take a moment to thank Tom Paine, Ben Franklin, George Washington & anyone else responsible for our independence from this silliness | ||||||
| too bad its in f*cking america retard. | ||||||
| Davidbrown2 and Tooooon, I would just like to inform you that this compound roundabout is in fact located in England. Also, I'm looking for a better sound right now. | ||||||
| Interesting sound used for this XD | ||||||
| Typhlosion, only one person has complained about the sound. Don't worry about changing it. | ||||||
| Ack, scratch that. One other, but he was just suggustiong. =P (wee, 3 posts) | ||||||
| england prevails | ||||||
| wtf... I never want to drive there. | ||||||
| Ah yes, good old English roundabouts! | ||||||
| Yes, this is why we have proper driving tests in the UK. | ||||||
| Wow, I'd rather walk | ||||||
| stupid *ss limeys | ||||||
| Not too bad, I've been to Atlanta | ||||||
| |||||||
| Magic roundabout in Swindon? If it I've driven round that. | ||||||
| If that is the magic roundabout in Swindon, i live a few streets away... | ||||||
| I'm never driving in britain, I'd get arrested in two minutes. | ||||||
| wtf is that sound | ||||||
| This is real, and it's famous. I remember one of my teachers saying that "you take your life into your hands when you drive on that thing". | ||||||
| dubba yew tee eff | ||||||
| I love the mystery type music. | ||||||
| ....why do the Britts drive on the left....even Germany drives on the right.....but then again we copied off of them... | ||||||
| rofl, silly yanks wouldnt last 5 minutes on that thing | ||||||
| ...i guess
| ||||||
| Apparantly if you look at it as 5 seperate roundabouts its easier to work out... Then again i just have to ask the question as to why it isn't just one huge roundabout in the first place? | ||||||
| why not use a grid system and eliminate the need of roundabouts | ||||||
| Why not use both? You can be more vesatile with roundabouts. | ||||||
| I can't think of any music that would fit besides riddin' spinnaz. And whoever designed this should be fired :P | ||||||
| Ah yes, the infamous round-a-bout. There to trap foreign tourists indefinately. That way they are likely to not want to come back! Here that JOHNNY FOREIGNER! We dont want you! | ||||||
| this scares me | ||||||
| Because with gridsystems we would get gridlocks and gridlocks suck ass... Then again swindons town planners must have been smoking something when the laid the place out. urgh... one way system | ||||||
| engrand? | ||||||
| ........people can be stuck in the roundabout around le arc de triump for very long periods of time... | ||||||
| dosen't look like gridlock causing traffic there. | ||||||
| And I thought New Jersey had some bad roadways! | ||||||
| I know this is in england, im saying go look at India's roads if you want to see something which is actually "Woah" | ||||||
| I Must apologise then - I thought It was nothing but American Ignorance - There is a junction similar to that about 20 miles south of Dalry (My Town) and when I first saw this, I thought It was that one - Apparently not....
Proven Wrong apparently....
... I'll Bump my vote up accordingly! | ||||||
| Roundabouts can kiss my ass. | ||||||
| What a cluster f*ck. | ||||||
| That's the "Magic Roundabout" in Swindon, iirc. Yes, it's real. Yes, it actually improves traffic flow, you just gotta treat each roundabout as a seperate one... |
+1 | |||||
| The cars are lining up on the right hand side of the road in the bottom left hand corner. | ||||||

| GOD SAVE THE QUEEN! | ||||||
| Is this some kind of mockery to England? | ||||||
| How the f*ck does that work?! | ||||||
| Roundabout by Yes!!! | ||||||
| This makes me upset. | ||||||
| its quite simple really | ||||||
| Lol I live there! | ||||||
| Holy Hell, I m glad i dont live there. | ||||||
| AAAAH | ||||||
| One way to keep the assylum seekers out | ||||||
| That intersection is definitely prone to traffic jams... | ||||||
| personally, i immediately thought "legends of the hidden temple" | ||||||
| f*ck that | ||||||
| lol, milton keynes ftw.
it's actually signposted "The Magic Roundabout" | ||||||
| i thought the round about where I lived was terrible. | ||||||
| proof that other countries besides mine are retarded | ||||||
| That is Milton Keynes i do beleive - The most roundabouts in one city in the UK - but that is a bit stupid =[ | ||||||
| Wow, wtf... i live near milton keynes and i never heard about or seen that round about.
Normally they dont cause too many problems, its just when they get so big you need traffic lights on em.
Ironically, was only a week ago i saw a car almost get smashed to pieces by a HGV, cause this kinda thing. | ||||||
| What a mindf*ck | ||||||
| wtf? The music is surprisingly appropriate. | ||||||
| Is that their plan for reducing congestion? Scaring everyone away from even wanting to drive in the first place? | ||||||
