Reply to comment by Lostronaut_ in I really hate the Portsmouth circle roundabout by fjphil

I once almost rear-ended a teenager because he stopped mid circle (back when it was one lane) to wave in a big truck. Driver refused then eventually had to go when kid wasn't moving

It seems like that teenager should retake drivers ed. who stops in the middle of a round about to waive in a vehicle?

There was a time when some nearby states unwisely chose to change right-of-way rules rotaries/roundabouts/etc. They thought having traffic in the circle yield to incoming traffic would be better. They were wrong but a small percentage of people learned that way and haven't changed. It really sucks to end up behind these people. The worst part is they look just like the rest of us, so we can't know until it's too late.
