Actually, with the exception of roundabouts, "priority to the right" seems to be alive and well in rural France. At least, I assume that is why people on major roads stop and allow me to enter from the side road when I'm on their right.
And I really appreciate those French drivers entering roundabouts who use their left-turn indicators to signal that they're
not taking the first exit, and, of course the right-turn indicators to signal that they are taking the next exit.
