A cousin and I have been competing for years to see how many times around we can go before we either stymie another driver or get pulled over.
I’m currently winning at 43. Neither of us have ever been pulled over, it’s always some irate grandma who refuses to enter even though I give her plenty of room.
I remember someone tested this. They lasted like eight hours until some neighbor called a cop
Snitches get stitches.
I believe the UK has a law for this and it’s 7 times.
Norway here. I’m sure I’ve heard 7 somewhere too.
I don’t think there’s a specific rule but if you obstruct traffic unnecessarily you’re breaking veitrafikkloven §3
“Everyone must travel with consideration and be alert and cautious so that no danger arises or damage is caused and so that other traffic is not unnecessarily obstructed or disturbed.”
Where I grew up there was a russeknute for driving around the roundabout (there was only one) 20 times. Traffic was reasonably heavy during normal rush hours, but every May evening the obstructed traffic was other drives waiting for their turn to do their 20 laps.
As far as I know, nobody were ticketed.
Only 7!?
There’s no such law in the UK.
Can you link the source?
American here, although I have no clue 7 sounds fine so we’re calling it. Get on with it.

Too complicated for you.
Even the word roundabout is too complicated… My GPS refers to them as “traffic circles”.
Look kids! Big Ben! Parliament!
Roundabouts force you to turn Left! It’s Political!!
I’m in the UK, they force you to turn right.
Well that explains the Liberal party
If you confuse and distract other drivers, that’s endangering traffic and police will remove you.
in germany driving around pointlessly is illegal i think
I mean, it’s Germany
I don’t remember where but I remember seeing a youtube video where someone did this but didn’t call attention to it
Like they were driving in a roundabout and just kept going around and around, then a jump cut to when they finally exited but like it was clearly much later because the sun was down. They had to have been in it for at least a half hour or so
Driving? You’re fine.
Drifting? You’ll get yer peepee whacked.
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Theres probably easier ways to get your peepee whacked…
For free???
In this economy???

I feel like if a cop came by a few times and saw you still going around they would probably pull you over just to see if you’re having an episode or something, then probably tell you to go home. I think you’d only really get in trouble if you were a dick about it.
Imagine a lights and sirens pursuit around a roundabout.
I will, as long as I can imagine it set to the tune of Yakety Sax
I definitely think they could get you for endangering others, or something like that. I don’t think it’s explicitly illegal, but I’d be surprised if it isn’t implicitly illegal.
Leftists be like:
A dew days ago ist saw an older Dude in a Bike, taking all the left turns in one of our roundabout. (Germany) I know that he rode for at least 3 hours. He wanted to reach 200 rounds, i think. Hope he made it.
I’m not entirely sure here, but I think, I saw something about useless driving around as a law around here
Which would fall into this ground, I guess…
Basically Nascar tbh
