As an American tourist in London I found the roundabouts very interesting. In big cities and small, all intersections have a roundabout. Compare that to the US. You have Stop signs which are easy to miss. Sometimes the Stop signs are ignored by people in a hurry. Sometimes people steal the Stop signs to use as decoration in dorms.

As someone that has lived in London for nearly 30 years, I can safely say - no they don't. Most intersections have traffic lights.

OK, I meant at least have a roundabout, and I meant in England not in London.

		It's not just London. For example the small city I now live in (Lincoln) has very few, if any, roundabouts in the city itself - they are confined to the ring-road around the place, and roads in/out of it. Not true for all places, of course - for example Swindon is notorious for its "Magic Roundabout".

There are large numbers of roundabouts in parts of the US too now. E.g. Montana.
