It is one of the most basic rules of the road, not that far down the list from drive on the left. If we all start adapting the basic rules we'll find it hard or impossible to go anywhere.
yea ok my hand's are up, i forgot about it is your right of way on the motorway than if you was joining from the slip road by law, but common courtesy is to allow people room, i still think i used my head though because the traffic was heavy but traveling at a steady 50ish mph, if i had been stubborn it would of left a car and a lorry stationary on the slip road now that would of been more dangerous imho, some one would of had to slow down even more than i did to allow the lorry to come onto the carriage way, or no one give way to them resulting in a tail back up the slip road, if lorry drivers are sooo good then being in such a high vehicle he would of seen what's happening ahead and maybe gave some room, instead of being an arse and being on my arse.
