I just can’t understand who’s wanting these roundabouts. If the county has that kind of money to spend, for goodness sake use it to make turning lanes.

There are so many times when I am turning without turning lanes and look in my mirror to see a car or large pickup bearing down on me and I always wonder if they can stop in time or are they distracted or are going to hit me and kill me.

Some of these roundabouts, like the one at Gig Harbor, are dangerous. Drivers come into this one too fast and if you are new at it, they almost cause a crash.

How many turning lanes could be built with what one of these roundabouts cost?
