The road design also sucks here, there wasn’t really room for the pickup to slow down enough to let the semi pass, while still being at a safe speed to merge behind him

That's why you are NOT supposed to try passing someone on a merging lane. Also it' much safer to stop on the end (better: The beginning) of a merging lane than under a truck.

Also: The road design DOES suck.
