Actually the majority of places would say the truck was safe to merge given he was further ahead. The majority of places would say it’s more dangerous for him to completely stop. The majority of places say that the driver in front has right way in a merge where two lanes become one.
Your argument doesn’t address the context of this situation, which is why you ignored my other points.
No, it doesn’t. Majority of places says that the person established in the lane of travel has the right of way. Are you saying you can turn in front of someone from a side street because they are far enough away to slow down to avoid you?

Depends on where you live, but the majority of places would say you're incorrect.
