Roundabouts in Europe according to OSM

(by u/Whiteflager)

[unbfacts]

Roundabouts reduce traffic fatalities by 72–90% and injury crashes by up to 80% by eliminating high-speed collisions. They also cut wait times 30–50% and lower fuel use by 15–30%, making them safer and more efficient than signalized intersections.

Look, I just think we need to stop coddling those hedonistic roundabout hogs who get into the inner lane and circle for hours, wasting valuable capacity.

Inspiraling Roundabout [Explained]

Transcript Under the Cut

[A highway roundabout wherein all the indivudal roads join into a large spiral with a small open area in the center.]

Caption: Even though it was technically navigable, the highway department vetoed my inspiraling roundabout design.

how comfortable are you driving in roundabouts/traffic circles?

oh those are a breeze, i could do them any day all day

they're fine i guess; they're definitely quicker than constant stop lights

i dont hate them, but i'd rather there be none

i try to avoid them, but if it's quicker to do them then i will

i can only do one lane ones, two or more lanes no way

i avoid them at all costs

just kill me now

what in the heck are you talking about/vanilla extract/i'm bald

HI

I DECIDED TO REDRAW THIS SCREENSHTO FROM SONIC 3 BUT IT'S TERIOS INSTEAD OF SHADOW

FOR SOME REASON

For those who don't know, Terios is the original design for Shadow before he became.. well Shadow, aka the hedgehog we all know and love today.

I really really REAAAALLLLYYYY Like how this one turned out, I just don't like the mouth, the mouth looks not good 😭 And you can tell someone drew this and it's not from the actual movie but STILL I like it, it looks silly, I REALLY love how the quills turned out omg nansndfgdsg

This is the original screenshot I referenced:

Annnddd I was listening to this on loop while drawing and my god I almost cried remembering that scene- Holy sheesh X,D
