    As an American who has visited Norway a few times, I’m always impressed with their infrastructure.

    Yes, I admit, I did drive.

    Anyways, I loved the roundabouts inside the tunnels. The U.S. won’t even get their shit together to put in roundabouts on regular roads.

      I think the US ranks #6 or 7 in total number of roundabouts. Per capita and per km of road is a different story, but total roundabouts is over 11K in the US, we just have ~6.8 Million kilometers of roads. That’s more than China, and just a smidge less than India.

        Could still use more. I was very disappointed that my home town put up new lights recently.

        We have a big center of town rotary and a few small ones. So, it’s not like it would’ve been an odd choice.

        I even wrote a letter to the editor in our small paper. Oh well. 🫤
