You know, I was perfectly content ignoring this thread for a while now, but now I just HAVE to join in. Judging by the URL, I'm guessing that this was a PROPOSED sign idea and not an IMPLEMENTED one. That sign is absolutely asinine. I can easily see John Q. Rural, having never seen a roundabout before, running into cars while trying to make a left turn! To think that this image even exists is giving me reason enough to never visit Delaware! :)
Yeah, it is pretty bad, but I think it's worth looking at the document it came from:
http://www.state.de.us/research/register/september2000/signing%20and%20marking.revised---V-1.htmbut not all the images load on the first attempt (at least in Phoenix - I did a right-click View Image and then back again).
(a usable URL too) These images are far more encouraging: http://www.state.de.us/research/register/september2000/signing%20and%20marking.revised---V-1-9.gif http://www.state.de.us/research/register/september2000/signing%20and%20marking.revised---V-1-4.gif -- David P.
