Oh...now I understand, but, the circumstance you mentioned is why I ALWAYS stagger with any car that is in the roundabout. Personally, I do not enter a roundabout at the same time as another motorist. I always allow the other car to enter the roundabout before me so I can see where they are going. I always stagger and entering the roundabouts is included in my staggering. I do know others don't do this but it's their risk, not mine.
