but we've got some really special ones too. I'm most familiar with this one: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magic_...emel_Hempstead)

I don't know what the guy who designed it was smoking but it must have been some seriously nasty stuff.

What confuses us in the USA is the 4 way stop. We get a little taste of it on very small roundabouts here in the UK (usually 3 way rather than 4) where everyone is stopped and wondering who should move first.
I refer to roundabouts as "Penny Lane Things".
