rotonda

a circular intersection with a central island where traffic flows in one direction around the island

What is a "roundabout"?

A roundabout is a circular intersection where traffic flows in one direction around a central island. Vehicles entering the roundabout yield to those already inside, allowing traffic to flow smoothly without the need for stop signs or traffic lights. Roundabouts are designed to improve safety and reduce congestion by lowering speeds and eliminating sharp turns. They are commonly used in places with high traffic volume or where multiple roads meet, as they help reduce the risk of accidents and keep traffic moving efficiently.

a set of lights, often colored in red, yellow, and green, that control the traffic on a road

What are "traffic lights"?

Traffic lights are signaling devices used to control the flow of traffic at intersections. They typically have three colors: red, yellow, and green. Red means stop, yellow signals caution or prepare to stop, and green indicates go. These lights help prevent accidents by ensuring that vehicles and pedestrians move safely and in an organized manner. Traffic lights are often placed at busy intersections or areas where controlled movement is needed to manage traffic and pedestrian flow.

What is a "pedestrian crossing"?

A pedestrian crossing is a marked area on a road or street where people are allowed to cross safely. It is typically located at intersections or other high-traffic areas and is often indicated by signs, painted lines, or lights to make it clear to drivers where pedestrians may cross. Pedestrian crossings help ensure the safety of people walking across the street by giving them a designated place to cross, and in some cases, traffic signals may control when it is safe for pedestrians to move and when vehicles should stop.

They come in various shapes, colors, and sizes, each with a specific meaning to ensure that everyone on the road follows the rules and stays safe.
