Indiana will give you plenty of diverging diamonds and roundabouts. Don't know so much about ramp meters but I personally won't trust them.
I just joined recently too, after reading this forum for the better part of five years, I've enjoyed so far and I think you will too.
Oh, and Hi from the Boilermaker State

the ramp meter thing, i suspect makes sense in a way that's beyond what i understand. on the basic level, seems like a terrible idea - right when you want your foot to the floor to merge into traffic at around the same speed as everyone else, you have to stop. in denver, i see it backing up onto surface streets at times.
i mean, the 'idea' behind it seems solid..
i live out in the boonies, so i don't interact with them much.
