My favorite questioner was the last one. A fashion tip for the ladies reading out there: when attending formal, televised events, always shave your beard.
Snarkiness aside, I suspect all will be well. Roundabouts have a way of slowing the most lead-footed of drivers, by presenting them with the choice of a concrete barrier or a sharp right turn. Even the most inebriated driver responds to this conundrum by applying pressure to his brakes, whereas drunks frequently fail to notice the color of a traffic light. There may or may not be fewer accidents, but the accidents that occur will definitely occur at lower speeds.
