Do they build the roads unstraight in Britain on purpose to give character to the road?  I can't figure out why out in the countryside, when there's no buildings, the road is still all zig zagg.  I also heard people tend to prefer stop lights to round abouts, but they keep building round anyways. Is that true? Or, do brits prefer round abouts? In the words of Mr Fawlty  Sorry if our roads arnt not big enough for you, but English cars have steering wheels
