OT Driving Test. Who was in the wrong?

The truck

that accident was certainly avoidable

the directive is to merge, the truck pulled ahead to pass in a merge

The car should of merged earlier. Not the trucks fault that the car is running out of lane.

Car could've just sped up. But the truck is definitely in the wrong here. No doubt

The car should have sped up in front of the truck instead of assuming the truck would move or even not looking before merging.

it would be the cars fault. I have driven that interchange many times coming off of 285 and merging onto 75 south. As you come off of 285 it is two lanes, and one lane is supposed to turn right onto the Riverdale Road and cars proceeding onto the 75 should be in the left lane. I have almost been hit in the same scenario half a dozen time for people who do not turn right and try to cut over to merge onto 75 before the lane runs out. if the truck slows down, he causing an accordion fender bender with the 60 cars behind him trying to merge.

if you look the black car is going faster than the red vehicle in the slow lane of the highway....so technically, and without a reference speed, the black car was already at speed for properly merging with the highway's traffic......the truck is going faster than both with clear vision(and probable intent) to cut off car.

If you look at the speed in the lower right corner, he was not speeding up. He was maintaining his speed and his lane. That's the car's fault. He's the one that had to merge. He should have either sped up more or dropped behind.
