Roundabouts are generally pretty shit for pedestrians and cyclists, yeah. Also, they are way more of a pain in the ass to drive in than a regular intersection. I'm yet to see a single example of a roundabout making an intersection easier to maneuver.

EDIT: I don't actually agree with this sentiment. I copy and pasted this from something someone said on donoteat01's Discord server. I just wanted to start a struggle session.

    They are apparently statistically less accident prone than four way intersections, which is why our local neighboring social democrat-run municipality went absolutely haywire and put one in every single intersection making driving there feel like going on those spinning tea cup rides that’s popular with traveling fun fairs.
