"I will not stop inside the roundabout to let other drivers enter".
It will be interesting to see if police start writing special roundabout tickets when accidents occur. Generally, a driver who crashes into the car in front of him/her is assigned blame, as it's his/her responsibility to keep a safe distance and stop safely. But if the driver in front in a roundabout stops to let someone in, that driver is making an unexpected (if not illegal) maneuver which probably is the real cause of the accident.
