There's also the problem that you signal and everyone speeds up to close the gap.

People are assholes.

I live in Las Vegas. Everybody does this. If you want to actually merge you will force your way in. If you signal first you’ll get cut up by everybody including big rigs and miss your turn

Except that guy that got in the middle lane to merge with traffic and didn't stop to wait for an opening. He kept driving till he hit the left turn at the intersection. Dude deserved to have the gap closed on him.
