Can't happen. That second car (the one at 3:00) could not enter the circle since they MUST yield. You already said the car at 6:00 was in the circle.

This is the whole problem in a nutshell. You must yield to ALL traffic before entering. Don't see why people keep putting up scenarios that involve someone not following rule 1.
