It's to make the European immigrants feel at home. Nothing more. Nothing less.
 
The one in Swindon is nightmare.... I had to work in Swindon for a few months a few years ago I used to dread going over it ..... on a plus they had THE best Curry house bar non none I had ever been in (can't remember its name though......) trouble is my expenses fell short of my bill whenever I used it.... (sorry I went a bit off topic) never went round the roundabout on a bike:eek: and don't fancy going back and trying it either

If you go round/through/into/over it in the rain you cannot see the road markings, just lights reflecting. I think I just found a car that was going in the direction I wanted and went with it. Nightmare!

You can then go round this in either direction.

That's the one..... hated it.....but I don't have to go to Swindon anymore..... company closed the shop eventually (and I don't work for them anymore anyway) shame though in someways..... the Curry house was VERY good....

There's one in Hemel Hempstead too... I've driven/ridden round it many a time... it's really quite logical when you tackle it.

It certainly looks like it would slow down the traffic :unsure: ... until some people know how to use it ... then they zoom around, terrorising all others. :ohmy:

It's a bit more complicated than that...
There's another one in Wycombe at the bottom of Marlow Hill which I've not ridden, as well as one just outside Denham under J1 of the M40. That one I have ridden.

Of course both of them are a little more expanded, so it's a little less easy to pretend to be incompentent when you go round them.
