Why does this junction not have a roundabout? Would having one there reduce the chances for a crash by forcing vehicles to reduce their speed when approaching the intersection?


Another comment explained how the UK hates stop signs, but yes, a roundabout would be a great and very British/European solution that would probably be very effective.


I still don't understand this comment. A stop sign a simple 100$ fix to the problem but we hate stop signs so...


Why should it be necessary to always have to come to a complete stop before yielding to traffic on the intersecting roadway? A stop sign doesn't prevent one from failing to yield to traffic even after coming to a complete stop.


It looks like a rural road. I don't think that roundabouts are common on rural roads.
