“Yeah. You never know when a car is coming. Sometimes it seems stupid, but we have laws for a reason.”
— Melissa Decelles, manager, Lawrence
“I think you should be able to turn left before the circle, but no with the large roundabouts.”
— Wade Rush, Kansas University graduate student, Lawrence
“I think it should be illegal. You always go completely around the circle before you turn left.”
— Viola Hamilton, retired, Lawrence
“No. I turn left before the circle all the time. As long as there are no other cars coming, it should be fine.”
— Tom West, lab technologist, Lawrence
