In the UK, a "double mini-roundabout" is a type of traffic intersection where cross-traffic and right-turning traffic have been separated into two joined roundabouts ("traffic circles" to all you Americans). There is no island in the middle of each roundabout, just a circle painted on the pavement, so they can be rather compact (hence, the "mini" classification). Double-minis are more likely to be used at intersections where the roads don't meet at right angles.

When using roundabouts or traffic circles drivers must?

It depends on the country. In the UK, we drive on the left. So, at a roundabout, we are expected to give way to vehicles entering the roundabout from our right.

Mini-roundabout are often used at a junction where a physical roundabout would prevent large vehicles from turning. Though vehicle can cross over a mini-roundabout, they are expected to still keep clockwise is they can.
