Lmfao not a straw man in sight in my comment. Do you know what a straw man is? I asked a simple question to expand on your position, and you dodged and mocked me (in three separate comments) because I guess you had a bad day. Eat a dick.
She sent a very clear message to the customer that his shitty, entitled, and borderline threatening behavior will not be tolerated. Seems to me like she made the world a slightly better place.
That's a good start. If you want to really teach them a lesson, then they need to pay 200% of the profits they made from the wrongful act, and not just 100%.
This is not an American invention, nor is it interchangeable with a roundabout.
The main priority of roundabouts is safe traffic flow for cars, but they can (sometimes) still be very hostile to pedestrians. This type of intersection is meant to prioritize pedestrians as much as possible. The narrow street slows vehicles, and the sidewalk bump outs make people trying to cross the street extra visible and minimize the time they need to be vulnerable in the middle of the road.
Which isn’t to say that roundabouts are necessarily bad, they just serve different purposes
Am I the only one who thinks that the design decision to eliminate the ability for cars to both cross Dexter or make left turns anywhere is a deliberate choice to create driver frustration and reduce favorable attitudes towards building more of these?
Normal protected intersections are terrific and allow automotive traffic to flow in all directions. What was the thought process here?
Just a guess (looking at the sharrows at the end of the other street) but it's probably a deliberate design to reduce the flow of car traffic on the street.
Dumb considering Michigan also mandates dedicated left turn lanes on every small intersection.
Like okay left allowed on any road but not if it's a split avenue. Instead of making a cheap and usable roundabout or ring road, let's make you play frogger against 3 lanes of traffic so you can do a massive U turn.
I’m confused about what is street level and what is curb level but I do like how it appears to prioritize safety of pedestrians and cyclists over everything
Where I live they rarely wait for one, or even pay any attention to traffic signals at all, for that matter. They seem to have an issue with the whole “sharing the road means we have to follow the same rules, otherwise I have no idea what you’re going to do or when you’re going to do it, and that’s how accidents happen” concept.
