Who invented the roundabout?

They are pointless!

Pun-derful

Did You Know?

Circles have no points, making roundabouts literally "pointless"! The first modern roundabout was built in Letchworth Garden City, England in 1909. Roundabouts reduce traffic accidents by 37% compared to traditional intersections. They improve traffic flow by eliminating the need for traffic lights in many cases. The Arc de Triomphe roundabout in Paris has 12 exits and is notoriously chaotic. Studies show roundabouts reduce fatal crashes by up to 90% compared to stop-sign controlled intersections!
