In the second example "Skalitzer Straße" has right of way. Here are the instructions emitted at the moment: http://www.openstreetmap.org/directions?engine=osrm_car&route=52.49915%2C13.41952%3B52.49857%2C13.41852#map=19/52.49896/13.41865
it's a total of four turn instructions every 10-20 meter since there is no proper tag for the routing engine to differentiate this from a road with four intersections. Instead the routing engine could emit a single instruction here. My argument is this: there already is a pseudo tag for these Not-a-Roundabouts: it's 1/ no junction=roundabout tag and 2/ a note tag containing "roundabout" / "Kreisverkehr" Here's an example: http://overpass-turbo.eu/s/jTV querying for (junction!=roundabout) and (note~"roundabout|Kreisverkehr") The routing engine could do the same parsing note tags. This would allow us to classify probably all popular ones at least. But it's a hack and that's exactly my point: there should be a proper tagging scheme to tag this.
