Good Video

Im that irritated belgian

The Dutch language lights go like automatic rifles 💀💀💀

As a Dutchie, We like bike

at 10:00 max speed within city limits is 50 km/h not 60

I hate Keizer Karel

How do people manage to crash there? Spain and France is full of these kinda roundabouts. Its just fine. Nothing wrong with it.

Slovenia seems to also has separated bike lanes in every major town and bike paths connecting different parts of the country too

19:09 schalkwijk

One US state, Michigan, seems to love to rebuild intersections as roundabouts. Because Michigan is not a through state it can get away with it, I have seen this even in rural areas. They greatly slow speeds and reduce accidents at the expense of speed.

i dont know wtf that is but its definitly not dutch XD why they still use those dumb trafic lights without sensors everywhere for it to actualy be efficent

AMERICANS should be forced to spend 40 hours in a classroom learning road rules and laws then 40+ hours learning to drive a manual gearbox car then optional extra with automatic on the road. Instead of a couple of hours then a simple test to drive round the block.

This video combines two topics i have very dear. Nice. Good job fellah !

So many recognizable places, especially from Delft!

I live in the Netherlands but have never been to here. But even without the statistics, I get your point.

If you want to understand this junction as a newbee? It is a 4 1/2 lane round road without lines and for every connection a T-junction with entering traffic lights and right of way rules. It's a shame you came to The Netherlands in this age. Before 2014 i think this intersection in Den Bosch was a good candidate to be the worst ( ua-cam.com/video/RzmWxn1Sfz8/v-deo.htmlsi=hcFPnAn1HyZwRS8i )

Netherlands is not perfect, but in the USA you could make 10.000 of these videos.

European cities have a cartwheel road network. All inbound roads (spokes) from other cities end up on the market square (hub). To reduce travelling through the busy hub, there a ring road (rim). In most older cities there's an old ring around the city center and and a modern ring around the entire city. Nijmegen is lacking the ring-roads, forcing drivers through the hub (Keizer Karel plein)

There are still many, many other examples of bad traffic design in Netherland. Maybe not quite on this scale, but I live close to an intersection with traffic lights that do just random mess. It would be much improved by simply removing the traffic lights. Or reprogramming them to something sane. But for whatever reason, they're not doing that.

Wow. Your equipment will be of a good use. Thank you for your support.

As a Dutch person: Nijmegens roads are all terrible and somewhere in the past 150 years the plnanning office of the city made a lot of mistakes. The city is also known for having a lot of speed camera's. So be careful and drive at the speed limit.

Next time use a normal voice, please. Not this " the comet-will-strike-tomorrow-and-we-are-all-going-to-die" doomsday voice.

Hey, thank you for your support!

The Netherlands is a miracle build on swamps.

in the 1920 the Keizer Karelplein used to be beautiful. With just a bunch of Villa's surrounding it on very wide but green roads.

Best roundabout in the Netherlands. Love it!!! Just drive! And it’s just like place de la Concorde in Paris.

Im glad i live in a town near nijmegen, keizer karel PIJN (not even calling it plein) is PURE HELL! everytime my mother and i drive trough it i fear for my life! Why this still exist BEYOND MY COMPREHENTION.

Seems like they need to build a proper ring road as they don't have one right now

I’m Dutch, came across this point in Nijmegen very often, and I’m totally agree. It’s a monster, doesn’t make any sense at all!

2:53.. something is off.. and it's not even the wizard's fault

Great analysis! I hope some local Nijmegen politicians are watching.

Great job! Keep going and helping!

how are those trucks? theyre obviously jeeps and suvs

I have crossed this intersection many times and it is not as bad as it seems. I can imagine as a beginner driver it is a scary thing to do. But if you can read the traffic it is not that bad. Everybody on the roundabout is in the same situation and I always noticed that everybody looks very carefully at each other so I really get scared there.

Thank you so much for your help and support 💙💛 Just saw your new fund-raiser from NotJustBikes. ❤Thank You! ❤

There is three simple pieces of advice for this roundabout: 1. watch the traffic lights of the cyclists. Red: no cars will enter from that intersection. Green: cars may come from that intersection. 2. drive as fast as you can. 3. stay on the inside for as long as possible and only go to the outside just before your exit comes. I learned to drive in Nijmegen so it is easy peasy.. There are at least 2 even more confusing roundabouts in Nijmegen. The Steve Biko one, which depending on which side you can from is a roundabout or it isn't and the Gelderse Poort, same principle as Keizer Karel.

16:00 That's a very important insight that all American traffic engineers have missed. We don't have free flow traffic in cities so the assumption that more lanes will move more people is just false. The intersections are the bottleneck and wider lanes actually cause more delays at intersections. It's amazing that it took until 2024 for a smart student who studied in the Netherlands to finally bring this insight to the US. Now that we have this knowledge, please for the love of god stop widening our streets.

Great another expat who gets 30% tax cuts telling me about my country. Stop inflating our housing market, expat.

its only hard for ppl who shouldnt drive

You do not say sorry when you have a valid complaint.

Is it an app? What app do u use for modeling streets? Are there any free tools for non-professionals?

Thank you for sharing!

To be fair, Nijmegen will do everything to be as terrible and frustrating for motorists as they can be.

If you only watch the channels that faun over Dutch infrastructure and cycling, you almost tend to forget that the Netherlands has the highest density of highways in Europe.
