I was going to ask you - and the other Americans in this thread - if
you're all starting to see roundabouts in your area the last few years?
It's not that long ago that we had essentially none in all of southern
Ontario. Now they seem to be the "go to" choice for lots of situations.
I'm not sure why that happened but it's very common now.  I had
understood that roundabouts are extremely rare in the US too but my
friend is hearing that they are springing up all over in the US now.
There was one in that video so maybe he's correct.

 Yes, they’re springing up like tumbleweeds. Usually for a stupid reason.
Like a cheerleader barreled through an intersection at three times the
speed limit so they decided they should put roundabout in there. She
wouldn’t have noticed that anymore than she would’ve noticed the stop sign
so she would’ve just hit it and landed on somebody else.
 They don’t have any signage, and nobody knows who has the right of way and
so basically they’re freaking dangerous.
