That is amazing!  And I see it as a convincing argument for traffic lights.  Perhaps locals know their way, but for a tourist traveling here it would be a nightmare.  While the videoclip says that there are few fatal accidents, that’s likely because of the low speeds involved in the roundabout.  I suspect the rate of fenderbenders is extremely high.

Thanks for sharing this, Jonathan.
