Flashback Friday: Roundabout Living
Yesterday on the commute to work, I heard a story on the radio about a German woman who got stuck in a roundabout, which is a transportation term that literally means, “Our city is too cheap to invest in red lights.”
It seems that this elderly lady made her way to the inner lane of the roundabout … and couldn’t get out. She made at least fifty laps around until a police officer (“kopperschnitzel” in German) came to her rescue, turned on the siren, and stopped traffic so she could get to her intended destination (Straussenheimendört Lane, I think).
