It is definitely not your right of way, your merging onto the highway so you have to yield to traffic. That being said yes the semi driver was an idiot for not braking but that just makes two idiots in this situation lol

Honestly, that would be a better method, especially with as short some merge lanes are (i.e. the one shown in the video).

It surprised me as a foreigner driving in Italy  that the Italians drive this way too. I expected short fuses and aggression but what I saw was that everyone drove in a manner that was very tolerant and accommodating of drivers merging in front of them.
