Ask the office to schedule a 5-10 minute phone call

I willl agree that this scenario is more reasonable than many other examples - no one could physically block you merging even if they…

Sure. You can add "or occasional acts which make them feel like they've done a "good deed" even if that has negative consequences to safety…

Interesting. Any source to back that up? Most road authorities refer to the Austroads manuals for guidance.
