The only vehicle you should need to be concerned about is one that enters the roundabout alongside you. If you entered after yielding to all traffic already in the roundabout to your left, and people also yielded to you before entering the RAB, (which are the rules), the car that entered along with you should exit on the first exit (right turn) or the second exit (straight ahead) if they entered in the right lane. That means you were in the left lane and have two options, straight ahead or third exit (left turn). In either case, there would be no conflict since you both followed the rules.
Since there is a group that doesn't care or understand how roundabouts work, or think they know how from prior locations and don't bother to learn how these work, I completely agree with your statement that you have to be prepared to yield to those people.
