Traffic engineers believe roundabout intersections improve safety and the flow of traffic, but maneuvering through them can be confusing. “Most of the people who are on the road today learned how to drive before there were roundabouts,” said Olympic Driving School instructor Greg Sypnicki. Sypnicki teaches his students to use their right turn signals before exiting a traffic circle, signaling to drivers about to enter it’s safe to do so. "That makes sense," said Sypnicki, who contacted Rep. Beth Doglio, D-Olympia, about creating a law. Doglio is sponsoring a bill that would require the use of turn signals when exiting roundabouts. Sypnicki testified in favor of House Bill 1532 before the House Transportation Committee Wednesday afternoon. No matter what happens with the legislation, roundabouts are here to stay. According to the Washington State Department of Transportation, when compared to traditional intersections, roundabouts have fewer pedestrian crashes, injury and fatal collisions: The bill targeting roundabouts isn't the only traffic-related legislation being discussed by lawmakers in Olympia.
