This is one of the most complex roundabout systems you'll see - when it
is eventually full res. See

for a Google Earth placemark with overlay of higher res image.

Check out the last picutre (from inside the Mini). This could never work in the US!

it wouldn't work, but it would be great fun to watch.

BTW, on the same topic, did you know the roundabout at Arc de Triomphe gives priority to incoming traffic? i.e., traffic inside the roundabout must yield to traffic entering the roundabout. It is pretty trippy to watch.
