A four-panel meme using a scene from Star Wars: Episode II – Attack of the Clones. Panel 1: Anakin, with a U.S. Department of Transportation logo, says, “We’re going to redesign this intersection to be safer.” Panel 2: Padmé smiles and asks, “So, you’re going to make it a roundabout, right?” Panel 3: Anakin stares silently, expressionless. Panel 4: Padmé’s smile fades as she repeats, “Right?”

Yes. From the IIHS:

Studies in Europe indicate that, on average, converting conventional intersections to roundabouts can reduce pedestrian crashes by about 75% (Brilon et al., 1993; Schoon & van Minnen, 1994).
