Bloody hell. So much merging and switching of lanes. There would broken bits of car everywhere. The only upside would be the ability of bikes to go past the gridlock that would happen at a certain density of traffic. Also, why do so many people in the animation need to U-turn?
Came to say the same thing. So many lane changes needed in a short distance. People suck at merging at the best of times. This is a panel beater’s wet dream. That ‘engineer’ needs to go back to school.
I’ve spent a fair proportion of my life around civil, structural, mechanical and process engineers, and found them to be some of the most pragmatic, sensible, intelligent and practical people you’ll even meet. The shit they design needs to work, or people die. Whoever designed this is not one of those people.
I’ve spent a fair portion of my professional career working for engineers of various types. The issue lies with the people who assume their intense knowledge of their chosen field of study means that they are experts in all fields of human existence. This pomposity leads to the stereotypical engineer who gets trapped into CAD models that don’t translate to the real world and get belligerent when that gets pointed out. Certainly I’ve met engineers who aren’t like that, but the stereotype exists for a reason. Perhaps it’s Electrical engineers that are the worst? I meet a lot of them.
Retired school teachers are another problematic customer who knows more than any seasoned journeyman.
I’ve always heard that in civil engineering the ones who design parking lots are the worst of them, based on the results we see in the world. Maybe this was from one of them accidentally handed something outside their normal work.
The people uturning are just trying to go straight lol. They have to turn right, merge left, u turn, merge right, and turn right, in order to go straight. Others are trying to turn left which here involves a u turn, merge right, turn right.

They need a U turn because they missed their exit at the previous insanely designed interchange

This is why engineers need to go outside and experience the real world like the rest of us.

That’s how you go left. Basically the same as a Michigan left.
Two wrongs don’t make a right, but three rights make a left.
That’s a jug handle, not a Michigan left.
Source: I live in Michigan. Michigan lefts are awesome.
Because they’re on a stroad and the business they want to visit is on the other side
