Interesting to see such an emotional comment about something factual... according to roundabout ddesign, the mound in the middle does exactly what the author says: it is an improper obstruction to visibility within the roundabout, ought not to have been placed there and is a continuing flaw that will not get better over time...
The tone of the note expresses an expectation on the part of tha author that the problem will not be solved, that there is no reasonable ear to speak to about a clear problem.
When we speak about law, we speak about a process where concerns are heard, reasoned, and acted upon. Lawlessness in more about the failure of process than it is about some breaking of the law in some instance, some failure to correct... it is about the loss of faith in the process by which lives and nations are improved,

Interesting comments, but none that actually state why it is there. It is there to be exactly what it is, sight blocker. It is there to keep people slowed down so that they do not just speed around it, it keeps the speed down. If you take it out, I promise the accidents will go up as people look around and see how they can weave in and out. It is not going away, it is working just fine. Taking it out would create a problem, not solve it.

None of the other newer-style roundabouts have this hump built into them! I think they should remove it because it is dangerous because you can't see around it!!

I travel to eight different states regularly, and some of them have it, and it serves the purpose. It is there to slow people down. Go slow and it is not a problem. Lawlessness, there is nothing lawless about a mound in the middle of a roundabout. It is not a problem, There is nothing emotional about it. People have to slow down and they don't like to slow down. The old one was like a racetrack, it was bad. I got hit there, people thought they were ona racetrack.

Oh I totally agree with the fact that the old design was a nightmare. And the design we have there now (with the little bypass ramps and everything) is fine, except for that obstructive hump! Drivers literally have to creep up almost to the middle of the lanes in the circle, and then peel-out in order not to be smashed into by someone flying around the turn!

At least if the hump were removed (like in MOST other newer-style designs I've ever seen), drivers entering the circle would have a better vantage point and be able to gauge more-accurately how hard they have to accelerate in order to safely pull into traffic.

This is an issue which has to be addressed! This design is already 12 years old, and it needs to be updated in order to keep up with the times, so we don't have a dangerous design sitting there for 40 years like the original, infamously-dangerous "Traffic Circle" that used to be there!!!

the hump is there because your attention should not be divided between whats going on in front of you and what might be happening elsewhere. if you obeyed the posted speed instead of trying to avoid it this should'nt be an issue . the hump also serves as a headlight visor between i587 and rt28 without the hump night blindness would occour.
