  • Many "roundabouts" are junctions with traffic lights (signals) but have retained the roundabout name in common use.
  • The words "Road" and "Street" are often used interchangeably with no rhyme or reason, even to the extent that at one end of a road the sign will say "Rd" but at the other end the sign will say "St". Some names will just sound odd though - you rarely hear people say "Sheikh Zayed Street" for example (although there is a Sheikh Zayed St in Sharjah not connected to the Dubai SZR).
