Practically, people treat them as a high speed chicane, most people don't even slow down for those. I've seen lots of tire tracks to suggest some people just drive right over the curbing. During the winter, someone took their bush guard equipped SUV and drove right over the signs in the middle of the island.
When I was in Spain and Portugal, if I got bored while the g/f shopped, I'd just step outside and watch 4 lane traffic circles in action. Never ceased to amaze me there wasn't a massive pileup.
