But US drivers aren't accustomed to roundabouts....I have a friend that works in an office building next to the roundabout, and it surprises and confuses everyone who tries it for the first time.

There's one neighborhood in Santa Cruz where the locals were trying to cut down on thru traffic. When the speed bumps didn't slow people down, they added roundabouts. (a round island in the center of what was a 4-way intersection)

Had the opposite effect on me...I love the slaloms.
