I think one way around this is just to 1) avoid this exit 2) slow to a crawl (5-10 mph) and try to navigate around the left/right side of the lane and somehow avoiding the patchy/rough areas. Any other suggestions?

Id say, take it however you feel comfortable doing so, and dont worry about how you compare to others so much.
If you slow to a crawl you might get rear ended. You should avoid the pot holes so as to save your wheels and suspension. The more you use this exit the easier it wil become, as you find a path through the rough areas.

I'd take it in second gear at redline!
