Four years ago, four traffic circles were installed in a South Valley neighborhood to slow down drivers along Sunset Road.
But not all drivers hit the brakes.

The article didn’t show what they looked like, so I wonder how visually apparent they were. While people are idiots, for sure, signs or shrubs or something blocking their line of sight would be harder to ignore.
Wtf, people are having trouble navigating while drunk driving at night, too fast, and can’t follow the road, run into houses, but the roundabout is the problem? I’m not usually a fan of traffic calming measures but it’s time to double down. If I lived there, I’d surely invest in boulders or a stone wall to protect myself.
I’m back to the shrubs being key. Maybe something in the roundabout that is not only visually obstructive but would slow the cars going through it
Took a look at Google maps - you’re 100% correct, shrubs are needed to make it more apparent it’s a traffic circle. Additionally, there’s only a single streetlight on a single side - might need more lighting.
