People need to learn how to drive a rotary. Idiots actually stop in the circle!
Driver ed class: in the rotary keeps moving; when entering must yield.
That simple. I've driven many large diameter rotaries, and many smaller "roundabouts" some in Europe; even the truckers know how!

AND I will add that signage could be far improved. Use of the little diagrams, explaining 180 around goes where or 1/4 or 3/4 etc.goes where. NHDOT has a lot to learn, especially I'll add about signs and barriers in advance of the high speed toll collection in Hookset.
