Description

A design flaw allows drivers to go through the roundabout without slowing down. This results in conflicts with vehicles already in the roundabout who have the right-of-way. Pedestrians in crosswalks at this intersection are also endangered by constant violations of Georgia state law requiring motorists to stop for those using crosswalks.
The most practical solutions are:
1. Reengineer the vertices of the intersection so that motorists must slow down to safely enter the roundabout.
2. Replace the yield signs with stop signs.
Increased enforcement will not help in the long run due to the poor design of the roundabout as it currently exists.
