I can't speak to the specific implementation of the roundabout in question, but you're confused about a couple of things. Traffic circles, sometimes also called rotaries, are NOT the same as roundabouts. No new traffic circles have been implemented in the US since the mid 1950s. Traffic circles have different rules, one of which is that traffic entering has right of way, unless otherwise signed; roundabouts are the opposite. If you drive in the UK you will see that they work in a variety of different traffic conditions, not just areas of high congestion. They are everywhere, including on every highway with a speed limit of less than 60mph.
