So, the bottom line is to:
Follow RAB rules
Drive defensively
Try NOT to have a car next to you in a RAB.
Here is the reason why and a possible/plausible contrarian perspective to everyone saying OP would be at fault.
OP was heading north on Buena Vista and at RAB saw no cars to the left, proceeded at 15 mph in outer lane to continue heading north on Buena Vista. Driver at fault was traveling south on Buena Vista, entered RAB seconds earlier at a speed of 35 mph in the inner lane to take 3rd exit. Due to significant speed differences, both drivers were side by side (OP in outer lane, driver at fault in inner lane) when speeding vehicle made their exit, cutting in front of OP and causing an accident.
