As you now accelerate back up to the 20mph rate allowed for this intersection, the inside vehicle, whom you know to have the right - and possible inclination - to freely exit at the very nearby next exit, and needing to cross your "now -accelerating" path, *decelerates* - *especially* with respect to "forward progress", as he has essentially slowed to *0* mph relative to *that* direction - which coincides with the direction in which you are currently *accelerating*. It's as if someone had passed you, changed lanes, and immediately "brake-checked" you for the period of time that it takes for him to completely cross your "outside" lane.

I experienced this just the other day. I was traveling north on Morse approaching the Osceola Hills circle. There was a vehicle in the inside lane of the circle. I slowed until that vehicle had passed my position but I did not need to stop. As I proceeded to enter the outside lane of the RAB, the vehicle which had passed was already exiting onto Deskin Ln. The amount of time it took me to turn my wheel to the right and begin accelerating into the RAB was all the time needed for the vehicle already in the RAB to begin his exit. By the time I reached any potential impact point, the vehicle was clear of my path.

I'll keep looking for examples but from this one instance it appears that if a vehicle entering the RAB properly yields to vehicles in the RAB then the spacing will be such that a collision will not occur.
