earlier somone said that this junction was not deemed suitable for traffic lights..

ok so apart from a standard 4 way junction is there any more a suitable type of junction for traffic lights

roundabouts only slow down traffic , traffic lights bring traffic to a dead stand still when on red

seems to me a hell of a waste of money when either traffic lights could be installed or even the cheaper option of 4 stop sighns which would only involve 4 stop sighnt and a bit of white paint on the road

i would like to add that as a learner driver i am often amazed at how a hell of a lot of motorists dont have a clue how a roundabout works and pull out infront of me when it is my right of way etc , also anyone who uses whitebirk roundabout or the one in accy must have had a few narrow escapes from dumbasses who are clueless when using a roundabout i have had 3 near misses on accy roundabout alone

traffic lights are easier to understand , red means bloody stop even the most dumb of people know that , i think ....?
