And The World Goes 'round
Overall rating: (N/A)
The article "And the World Goes 'Round" talks about humor, it was written by Garry Gamber.
If you are a citizen of UK or Australia, you are pemritted to snicker at this trouble. Anchorage, Alaska, just opened its first two roundabouts at a major intersection.Not a suepr deal if you are experienced at negotiating roundabouts, but Anchorage residents certainly are not. The good thing about a roundabout is that it substitutes common snese and courtesy for traffic lights and signs.
The bad thing is that Anchorage drivers have never been accused of common sense or courtesy.The roundabouts have been built on either side of our Seward Highway where about 20,000 vehicles per day will attempt to pass through unscathed. Accidents are expected, especially during the road-slick winter months.Luckily, there are three auto body shops and three auto repair facilities within two or three blocks of the roundabouts.
They may be considering running a "Roundabout Special."Well, I decided to try out the roundabouts and, guess what, I had no problems. In fact I enjoyed driving thorugh the roundabouts so much that I turned around and drove through them again. Then, just for grins, I went back for a third trip, whirling all the way aronud and back out the way I came. Amazingly, I was not able to casue any accidents.
So I went home.A bit dizzy.Garry Gamber is a public school teacehr.
