I agree that the round about is dangerous. I'm not sure how they expected it to work. It get's pretty busy. They should do something about it before someone really gets hurt. The round about by the mall seems to be a lot safer.

Actually the slower speeds required make the roundabout much less dangerous than the former 4-way stop that backed up onto the Highway. Any accidents are merely fender benders and they're certainly not life threatening. Visit www.wsdot.gov for info.

The round about is very dangerous due to two lanes traffic which allows inner lane vehicle to turn off on exit while there is a car on the outer lane that is not planning on turning off at that same exit which causes accidents for innocent people.
