Strong disagree, a well designed roundabout is both safer and faster for both pedestrians and cyclists. See this roundabout [0] from Delft, Netherlands for a good example. Pedestrians have right of way over everyone, then cyclists, and lastly there's a set of traffic lights to give trams and buses right of way when they come by. Cars come last and traffic flows smoothly and safely.
