“It has been dubbed Britain’s ‘most woke’ roundabout because drivers must give priority to pedestrians, then cyclists, and then other cars and lorries before continuing on themselves. Locals have pointed out the priority for cyclists and pedestrians is unnecessary as only cars and lorries regularly use the Boundary Way route.”

    EDIT: But once again I’ve fallen victim to a classic blunder. The sort of people who would say a roundabout is woke would never care about a well-reasoned argument. And I’m just preaching to the choir in this community anyway!

    I’d question the existence of “the sort of people” in any meaningful quantity. As far as I can tell the only people dubbing it the ‘most woke’ roundabout are the authors of the article. Not a single person quoted uses the word woke. It’s a classic rage bait headline to generate clicks.
