Roundabouts have their limitations

Dear editor, If roundabouts are so good, why are the Brits installing lights on them?

Dear editor,

If roundabouts are so good, why are the Brits installing lights on them?

I know the M6 as I too go to Wolverhampton to visit family. To get back on the M6 to go south, I go through five small and two big roundabouts. Both of the big ones now have lights.

They are installing lights on most of the big ones in heavy-traffic areas. They are installing four-way stops, too, on some of the smaller ones that were six-foot ones before.

The people are having fun with them, learning how to use them. Roundabouts work if the traffic isn't too heavy.
