Roundabouts
Fortunately there aren't any really complicated roundabouts where we have to go to.
I'm always glad that there are traffic lights on the more complicated ones and putting the road numbers on the lane to make sure you go the right way is also a great idea.
Britain was famous for its roundabouts before Germany put them everywhere too, only here they are usually on small streets and you hardly ever have to deal with multiple lanes.
I had to look up how to do roundabouts correctly. Indicate where you want to go when you enter the roundabout doesn't seem to make sense to me.
When I want to turn right and I indicate when I enter the roundabout, how do people on the next exit know where I entered? Only then they would know if I want to leave now or in two exits.
In Germany we don't indicate on entry, but right before the exit (if anyone ever does).
I like the two lane system, one for people wanting to turn left and one for all the rest, that does make it easier.
