A mini roundabout often doesn't usually have a diameter. Most are jus normal 
junctions which have been made mini-roundabouts to set a priority.

So in terms of large vehicles it is the same problem as any other junctions, 
whether they can turn left or right. 

In the UK, U turns are prohibited at mini-roundabouts, which I would have 
thought would be the main usecase for a diameter.
