I'll just want to let you know, that I reworked the article about
mini-roundabouts and want to update it within the next days. You can
find it here: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/User:Imagic/Werkstatt
"If there is only a single vehicle, or two vehicles traveling in
opposite directions, it is common to drive straight across the middle
rather than going around."
Isn't this illegal?
Don't think so. The definition of a mini-roundabout is that it is
traversable, and making it illegal to then traverse it would be silly.
It is illegal in the UK (unless you are driving a large vehicle).
From the Highway Code, rule 188.

Mini-roundabouts. Approach these in the same way as normal roundabouts.
All vehicles MUST pass round the central markings except large vehicles
which are physically incapable of doing so. Remember, there is less
space to manoeuvre and less time to signal. Avoid making U-turns at
mini-roundabouts. Beware of others doing this.
