I do have a problem with people that try to block others from Merging (like on the interstate). Merge is different than Yield. The person coming up the on ramp has a right to get on the freeway. The person on the freeway MUST let them merge. Of course, the person coming up the ramp should have the courtesy to be traveling close to the freeway speed as well.
Err what?! Time to go back to the handbook buddy (no offence)

"Space To Merge

Enter the freeway at or near the speed of traffic. (Remember that the maximum speed allowed is 65 mph on most freeways.) Do not stop before merging with freeway traffic unless absolutely necessary. Freeway traffic has the right of way."
