Diagnosis
Severe Roundabout Paralysis
Rotatio stasis mentalis
Clinical description

Patient approaches a roundabout and simply stops. Not at a stop line. In the middle of the feeder road. A van behind them has already begun to back up. Patient does not understand 'who goes first.' Waits for all traffic to clear before entering, which may take four minutes. This is a two-exit roundabout.

Prognosis

Permanent. Roundabouts remain, apparently, a European concept.

Recommended treatment

Untreatable. Three YouTube videos have been watched and retained no information.

What is this?

Severe Roundabout Paralysis was added to the Institute catalog in response to a pattern our clinicians kept seeing. The pattern did not have a real name. This is the real name now. Everything about this entry is made up, except the behavior.

The Institute has assigned this condition the Latin binomial Rotatio stasis mentalis — fictional nomenclature for a non-fictional pattern.
