Roundabouts are pretty cool n and I definitely agree we should use those more (my experience with them is great when people aren’t total morons) but you’re insane if you think 4 way stops don’t affect traffic. Where I live they’ve put in lights now multiple times at intersections like that and it immediately makes traffic better.

It really doesn’t matter. They’re safer and better even if – maybe ESPECIALLY if – total morons are going through them. They just change the geometry of how an incident could even happen and leave everyone safer.
