Roundabouts can be intimidating a first but I love them now.<p>I had just landed in Edinburgh after a 12 hour flight with an 8 hour delay and picked up my rental car which has the steering wheel on the wrong site AND it was standard shift, which I hadn&#x27;t driven in 10+ years.  I managed to pull out of the lot without hitting anything but nearly broke into tears when I hit the roundabout that was 3 lanes deep and a figure 8 to get on the A8.  If my wife hadn&#x27;t been there I probably would have just gone home.<p>Looking back, the scariest part of this seems to be that I had to go through 2 other roundabouts to get to that figure 8 monster and I don&#x27;t remember either of those.
