In such a case it seems like a no-brainer that if you're in the left lane and want to exit, you must wait for a clear opportunity to get into the right lane and exit from the right-hand lane (unless that right-lane is ending and depicted as veering off to the exit ) or make another go-around. NOT ok to to cut in front of the driver next to you in the right-hand lane to fly over to that exit. However, a driver did that to our car and proclaimed that WE did not understand the concept of driving in roundabouts.

Did the driver in the left lane enter the RB with you (he was alongside you on Morse going north) or was he already in the RB when you entered it? If the former then he was clearly wrong but if the latter then you were wrong.
