Tony Sturley thinks a roundabout should replace the traffic lights on the main road through Rottingdean (Letters, November 6).

Has he considered how drivers flowing east to west down the hill into Rottingdean are going to react knowing they are approaching not lights, which necessitate slowing, but a roundabout?

I can imagine some idiot ending up among the cars in the car park.

I can see Mr Sturley's point about the flow of traffic but signs on the road before the hill advising us of a lower gear would be necessary and only some drivers would take any notice of this.
