Default Three danger roundabouts will be axed in move to boost cycle safety

The roundabouts at either end of Lambeth Bridge are to be removed and
the Imax roundabout at Waterloo is to be redesigned to improve safety
for cyclists and pedestrians.

Both areas are notorious for their high number of casualties. The
roundabout on the north side of Lambeth bridge was where royal designer
Moira Gemmill, 55, was killed in collision with a left-turning HGV as
she cycled to work in April 2015.

Pedestrians and cyclists get run over because they're stupid. They need to stop wasting taxpayer's money rebuilding roads every 5 minutes just to save a few ****wits.
