ALDOT must hire only idiots from grass cutter to engineers. If those idiots build one more damn round-about intersection I'm going to take a D-9 dozer and tear it the fk up.
The World is going to Roundabouts because once built they are much cheaper to maintain than traffic control lights. They work great when used by intelligent drivers, which explain the whole problem in most of Alabama. In Selma, all the traffic lights a breaking down from age at the control boxes (the most expensive components) and parts to fix them are no longer available. As the head of the Traffic Division I was the designated Traffic Engineer and was asked by the then Mayor where other places were getting parts. I told him that the trend was to build Roundabouts. Everyone in the meeting, including myself got a big laugh at the idea of Selma drivers using a Roundabout.
