There ARE some out there that are very tricky....like the one in Fishers off of Olio Rd.  THAT can be a pisser sometimes.

Really?
Arguing with Christians is like playing chess with a pigeon.  No matter how good I am at chess, the pigeon is just going to knock over the pieces, shit on the board and strut around like it's victorious.

The truth is slow, but relentless. Over time it becomes irresistible.

Well, the first time I drove it, I screwed up and missed my turn because of the signs didn't make sense.  I am on to it now, but I have spoke to several others who HATE it.  If you use it alot, NO PROBLEM.  For those who don't use it, it CAN be a tad of a pisser.

Until you have been stuck on Dupont Circle in DC with no way out, you can't complain about roundabouts!  :biggrin:

If you are ever in DC, avoid it at all costs!
Haven't been to DC for about 20yrs and from the sound of it I don't think I'll go back, at least if I'm the one driving.  Wasn't bad when I was there years ago though.  Other places I intend to avoid now are, the Chicago loop, LA freeway, and Atlanta, even with someone else driving.  If ya can't get there on secondary roads I ain't goin'.   :no:

Atlanta can be a real mess, and LA has been gridlock almost every time I've been there. Chicago, well I spent decades living there and the traffic has not improved in all the years I've been out here. (Used to take me 2 hours to travel the 45 miles to and from work when I was last living there.)

Indianapolis cannot touch any one of those, even at the dreaded 116th street exit off I 69 or 82nd street in Castleton at Xmas time.

The traffic is something I do not miss. . .

I've only driven it a handful of times but I guess it makes sense to me because I used to live near there and went through that intersection at least a couple of times every day.  The roundabout is better; trust me.

Been there and done that.  :yes:   Had a rental car at the Courtyard Marriott on Connecticut Avenue right up from DuPont Circle.   It was also right across the street from the Hinckley Hilton.
