I think the number of road deaths related to population is almost exactly the same between Sweden and the United Kingdom (low in European terms). However, here in the UK we have loads of traffic lights and they have started putting them at roundabouts/rotaries - presumably because of traffic densities, but this stops the roundabouts working as designed. They also put up screens at some roundabouts to cut visibility and make people slow down - a two-edged sword, as you can imagine.
The Magic Roundabout in Swindon works pretty well (as I commented in another recent post) as long as you suspend disbelief.
