Would you ever dare drive thru this intersection?

Somewhere in Corn Country
I drove through an intersection in Izmir, Turkey that make this one look empty....:scared

No stop lights, road markers or signs to guide the way i needed to go. from the middle of the circle, there were 6 different ways you could go-- you enter the circle from a road that is about 5 lanes wide--no lane markers--which shrinks to an area about 2 lanes wide.
Trucks are honking their horns, motorbikes are zipping in and out, cars flying around and the occasional donkey and pedestrian wandering around just to add to the fun.
Guessed as to which road to take while in the circle and a half hour later discovered I had picked the right one.

It's like that in Port au Prince Haiti too(except you're in the bed of a pickup truck with 10 other people :scared) and I'm guessing most third world countries. This is exactly why all the can drivers in big cities in the USA are immigrants. Our streets are child's play to them.
