The all green is only for the bikes, not for the motor vehicles 👍

Lol it was not even close, it is controlled chaos.

Lol. I know this is old. But I wanted to point out that there are a lot of concepts you don't realize are being used. Some studies show that when things are over labeled or have designated space then people become less cautious and therefore the situation becomes more dangerous. Stuff like bicycle lanes sometimes become more dangerous because cars will give them less room when they see the space the bicyclist is allowed vs when they have to determine the space themselves. Giving the cyclist a space that they feel is their own might make the cyclist less cautious about cars because they feel they own their space just as cars feel they own their own space on the road. When you feel you own the space you assume far to often that you have the right away and others have to look out for you with out any consideration of looking out for others. The safetynet makes it more dangerous. This is an example of a shared space where the lines between different modes of transportation are purposely blurred. That why even the curbs are low so that the pedestrian space doesn't feel so seperate from the road. Cars will drive slower if they feel that pedestrians or even cyclist can enter the road at any moment. It feels backward but it been proven in a lot of places that it can work. Letting the cars drive faster doesn't necessarily make things more efficent and making the roads safer doesn't always make people drive safer. This video was trying to show that this "squareabout" is actually working. Traffic is continously flowing. Bicyclists concerned about their own safety use hand singals. Walkers look both ways. Cars yield to oncoming traffic and pedestrians. The system is working. The idea of adding an extra label is trying to fix a problem that isn't there which may or may not result in making things worse. I'm not sure if it is a perfect system. I am only doing light research on this for a project. But these are at least some of the concepts behind shared space.

Hi Femsuii, that’s not how it works with all direktions green. All directions get a green signal and are allowed to go. This means that the ”coming from the right has right of way rule” doesn’t apply. The markings on the ground and signs only apply when the lights are not working (blinking yellow or no lights at all). So there is no right of way rule and the byciclist simply have to figure out amongst themselve who goes first 😁

Sonny Latchstring Why it works perfectly.

underverser 😁

Also with cyclists, you can read another cyclists' body language. If you think you're going to collide with another cyclist, you can see if they're still pedaling, if they have their hands on the brakes, and if they noticed you approaching; and judge whether to slow down or to keep going with no traffic calming

Het heeft er ook voor gezorgd dat stoplichten efficiënter kunnen zijn omdat verkeer niet oo ander verkeer hoeft te wachten en het heeft er ook voor gezorgd dat het verkeer veel veiliger is
