The difference being the use of frontage roads. The entrances and exits from the main carriageway onto the frontage roads will be between this exit and the next.
Yeah. That’s how cloverleafs look. Is this the first time you’ve ever seen one? In case it is, they’re incredibly common and the most efficient and safe way to allow cars to go all directions without any stoplights at an intersection of two highways.
Yes, it is more common to have them be in a single direction, but the extra lane and bidirectional traffic doesn’t make it look any less like a leaf of clover.
Sounds like the danger you’re describing is a problem with all exits and on-ramps since all allow faster traffic to exit and slower traffic to enter the highway. I’m confused as to why it would be worse with cloverleaf as long as all of the exits are right exits. In my head, the dangerous merges are the left side on-ramps since you’re required to merge into the fastest traveling lane.
But isnt weaving a problem with any exit that’s immediately following an on-ramp rather than an issue specifically with cloverleafs? Pretty much every exit/on-ramp combination in the dense cities that i know has this problem of needing to weave into traffic so that you aren’t forced to exit at the next exit, all while others are trying to weave from traffic into the exit.
This is just a weird shaped cloverleaf. Nothing to see here move along.

Less sexual.

No, most cloverleaves use single lanes, and the resultant curves make them resemble the leaf of a clover.

It looks significantly less like a clover leaf …

Why not? Please explain how it’s different. I genuinely want to understand.
