They have a few in AK... lots of accidents... especially in the winter... but it's all because of idiot drivers.

well that and who ever designed the traffic circles in AK is a complete moron.

two simple rules for round abouts... out side lane exits, inside lane continues around circle. and those in the circle have the right away.

in AK the inside lane can exit too... and that's where the fuckup is... people expect that they have to keep turning left... right up until their headlights come through the drivers window and jaw jack them.



that being said they were a blast in winter... could drift my truck through them... they were on either side of a over pass so I'd do laps in my truck facing the center median... wish I'd have gotten a long exposure photo of that...
