The column with priority regime will always have in operation special warning signals with red colour and sound, these oblige the participants in traffic to stop in the direction of travel as close as possible to the edge of the road, and when it is encountered in intersections, the participants in traffic have the obligation to give it priority of passing.

When you approach the entrance into an intersection simultaneously with a column with priority regime, you have the obligation to give it priority of passing, regardless of whether it comes from a road with priority or without priority.

Therefore, in the situation in which you find yourself inside an intersection with traffic in a roundabout and you observe that on a side road a column with priority traffic regime is moving which intends to enter the intersection, you have the obligation to give it priority of passing, even if normally the vehicles which intend to enter the intersection with roundabout must give priority to the vehicles which move inside it.

After the passing of the column with priority traffic regime you can continue your movement respecting the traffic rules for intersections with roundabout.
