Could this be due to the opposite way they use roundabouts abroad, as in you give way if you're already on the roundabout?
Not sure I've got this. Abroad you give way to everybody who is on or approaching closely the roundabout same as here?

No I think I get what darrsi means and I think I have been behind a few foreign drivers. We are both on the roundabout (them in front ) and going around and then suddenly they stop on the roundabout to let someone on from the left.
Where as we give way to people already on the roundabout from the right.
Americans have a good system in which some states at least allow (as it would be in our case) left turns on a red light and the etiquette when there are a few left turners at the same junction is first come first served rather than give way from the left or right.
I don't do rain or threat there of. dry rider only with no shame.
