I have a few personal rules about roundabouts and so far, they have worked for me.
a) I never have a car in my blind spot. I view the mirrors upon entering the circle so I know exactly who is around me.
b) I slow down (Not Stop) and "YIELD" to traffic especially if I'm not sure they might cut me off.
c) I always use turn signals where appropriate.
I have been cut off many times by cars in the outside lane who want to continue around the circle and I'm proceeding to go straight, so this is how I avoid it. So far, its worked well.
