Wisconsin DOT has been installing roundabouts all along I-43. There is one at Bluemound Road. When you see them in Chicago neighborhoods, those are for traffic calming so people don't go 40mph. No different than speed humps.

There is one in Lake County that I know of at Riverwoods and Everett Road. Lake County central permit facility also installed one in the main lot.

What about the one at Golf and Wolf? Maybe that isn't properly called a roundabout, but it is some kind of similar fuckery.

Just google mapped it. :lol:

so, congrats on getting me to google something. Yes, that is a roundabout.... And having five roads intersect is just fucking stupid. Broadway should be blocked and curbed at the roundabout or at N.W. Highway imo.

Northwest suburban veterans (CH most likely) might be familiar with the "turn lane" on Palatine Road between Rand Rd. and Windsor Rd. You have people making U-turns on Palatine, going straight to go to Olive Garden or enter the Ivy Hill neighborhood. Madness.

Palatine Road from Rand to Milwaukee Avenue is a mindfuck in general. Expressways with stop lights. Brilliant.

Some jackass just timidly approached the shared turn lane at a 30 degree angle and stopped with the rear 1/3 of his car blocking my lane. :lol:

I find driving terrifying. There are so many things I can do wrong. Granted, I generally haven't (though I ran a stop sign in downtown Arlington Heights six years ago and felt awful about it for hours, and I once went 90 from the state line to Lake Geneva at 1 in the morning), but the mere fear of doing so paralyzes me. Thank god for the trains or I'd never make it to the city for anything.

I yelled out "JORR!" last night as some old ass bag was half in the turn lane (turning left), with the ass end of her car blocking the lane going straight.

It was probably him making the turn.
