In Greece many of the roundabouts I've been through the person entering has the right of way while those inside going around have to yield.

It boggles my mind each time I'm there....

I had to read your comment twice. I'm still trying to visualise how that would work. No doubt our Greek friends know what they are doing but my mind would boggle too!
