oh.....and here's one thing you may not know about if you've not been to europe (quite genuinely not trying to take the mick here.....i know of many people who dont know what one is or how to use it)......

...roundabouts.

Yup - where you guys (americans) have 4-way stop signs, we'd have a roundabout. (bare in mind we drive on left hand side of road here) you basically have a circle in the middle of a junction, and you give way to whoever's coming from your right around the circle, then go when it's clear. (it's not like the US where you go in order of who arrived)

visit here to learn all about how roundabouts work (yes, this site really does exist !!)

I lived in the states for a year and they do have the odd roundabout.

What state are you in Advance?

Im from colorado! some of the best skiing slopes ever.

and yes, we have little roundabouts but nothing big.

and its not scary to turn right at a red light! lol
