My big rig is a three-axle affair----with a "short" 35' cargo trailer, and there are a number of traffic circles in these parts that are impassable with that rather tame beast. A class 8 rig would destroy some of them.
That said, properly sized and designed traffic circles can be a huge boon to traffic movement. In BUSY intersections, they're a menace.
