exciting two lane roundabout

    Hi, guys,
    Have question on roundabouts,
    I was going to go straight, so I entered roundabout on left side and my line was blocked by car exciting next exit, so I waited my lane to clear and proceeded straight, but guy who came on the right hand side line wanted to exit roundabout on my left (the exit i am passing (first exit) because my goal is go straight to next exit) and i see that he is indicating left, but i was first on the roundabout and i assume that i have right to proceed not him to exit from right lane to on to right hand side exit line on 2 lane exit.
    Any advise on this?

    For 1st and 2nd exit it's left lane, and 3rd is right. So if you were in the left lane going for the 2nd exit but there was someone in the right lane looking to exit at the first exit, he was in the wrong lane and you have right of way as you're already on the roundabout and in the correct lane.

    Unfortunately a lot of drivers don't know how to correctly position themselves on a roundabout and think using an indicator gives them the right to change lane!

    will this rule apply to the guy who entered roundabout from the road before my? Cant post picture, not allowed to do this yet. So lets say i am entering to go straight from exit 4 for me (thats if i go back turning by 360) he might entered roundabout from exit 3 or 2 from my position and stayed on right lane up to his exit and tried to exit from right lane, and confusion arise up because i was stranded on my left lane by other car and he could catch up from right lane and than he showed me surprised face that i am going straight not taking exit :)...
