They are filtering in so legally it's your right of way. Unfortunately they don't see it that way! Speed up so they run out of room and have to wait or slow down and let them go first, it's your choice. |

whoever is usually in front goes ahead to get over first when the lane ends. |

The one with right of way (based on signage) doesn't have to worry about it...the one without right of way has to get over without obstructing the driver with right of way. |

dont worry about who has right of way,because you could end up in a crash trying to prove a point,be safe and just let them get on with it,if in doubt let them go. |

Usually there is a sign before the two lanes become one that says either, "Left Lane Ends Merge Right" or "Right Lane Ends Merge Left." So, if the first sign is applicable, the person in the right lane goes first. If the second sign is applicable, the person in the left lane goes first. |

basic courtesy to let the other chap go - and safety too |

I'd say none, if the car in the right is a bit ahead then back off, and same if the car in the left is a bit ahead back off. |

Legally, I think, it is the person on the inside lane or left hand lane (if you are in UK that is).
The outside lane is really just a passing lane. |

The car that would have to merge to the left can not switch lanes to merge until it is safe to do so. The vehicle going straight ahead would have the right away if they were even... |

I don't think this is a case of legal entitlement ... both drivers must apply due care and consideration for each other. In essence. that means both approaching the bottle neck with caution .... in the case of an accident, I guess it would be judged on its merits ........... |

If the other person is next to me, I just back off. No sense in an accident. However,I think it is the person in the left lane and the person in the right lane should yield. |

You have to give way to the right ! so what ever car is on the right has the right of way ! if its in front that is lol |

It's almost always posted. Most often the right lane merges into the left, so they should technically yield, but right of way is generally established by who's in front. Don't race 'em for it, that's dangerous. |

in theory the only reason that one car is in the outside lane is to overtake the other so by that token if they are nose to nose then the outside one should be going faster and therefore should get there first.........
but we all know it doesn't work like that with two alpha male drivers don't we........ |

Legally, either. Actually, the outer lane is the overtaking lane so I'd guess they should go first.
"116: On a two-lane dual carriageway you should stay in the left-hand lane. Use the right-hand lane for overtaking or turning right. If you use it for overtaking move back to the left-hand lane when it is safe to do so."
"144: Being overtaken. If a driver is trying to overtake you, maintain a steady course and speed, slowing down if necessary to let the vehicle pass. Never obstruct drivers who wish to pass. Speeding up or driving unpredictably while someone is overtaking you is dangerous. Drop back to maintain a two-second gap if someone overtakes and pulls into the gap in front of you. " |
