Accidentally deleted a great comment while trying to "like" it: "the only shape I need at my intersections is THE CROSS!"

Speed limit concerns aside, roundabouts are definitely safer than standard intersections, there are mountains of data on this. They greatly reduce the opportunity for collisions and they slow traffic. As for confusion, once you've used one once or twice you will understand how they work (follow the road, which will curve to your left, until you turn off...pretty simple).

I don't think most of care for roundabouts, but statistically they prove to be safer. We're just not used to them here, even though they are common in a lot of cities in our states & I don't think that has anything to do with Europeans taking over DeLand roadways! That's pretty funny.

Roundabouts to not save lives. They only confuse the driver. Full stops don't work as seen in the accident on 44 and Grand. Traffic has to slow down at major intersections and a Traffic light does that. The speed on 44 is too high to begin with. 45 in a zone inhabited with homes and businesses is plenty fast enough.

It would be very helpful south of Deland when the new Walmart goes in. Anybody against roundabouts has no idea how they work, or been to Europe and driven one!!!! The roundabout keeps cars MOVING!!! Can you imagine the backup of cars coming into Deland with the Walmart there? Who wants to sit through multiple traffic light changes?! NOT ME!!! This cute petition was very clever, thanks, whoever wrote it!

In fact, roundabouts greatly reduce accidents. There's tons of data on this.

I think our stop lights are just fine. Install more stop lights.

No round-a-bouts, please. They cause a lot of accidents.

They do work here. Drastic reduction in collisions across the board where implemented in the US
