I always fall back and will not allow another car to drive along side of me. I also do not ever enter a RAB at the same time as another car. I will always let the other car enter first and will motion to the driver to proceed before me. I drive very defensively while entering, driving in and exiting the RABs.

I don't allow another car to drive along side of me on the open road either. I will always either speed up or fall back so I am not in someone's blind spot.
