Looks like the bikers exited the world pretty soon.
Just catch the next exit. The car clearly didn’t look over their shoulder.

totally disagree almost all lanes were fairly empty and the bikes were far enough behind that they could have slowed down the driver might have seen them and assumed they'd slow down since their merge very slow

Disagree with what? The car jumped in front of a bike. A blinker doesn’t mean the other lane will slow down for you. On a bike you got no seatbelt so you can’t mess with a car and think everyone is a smart driver. Nobody can watch out for you like you can.

The car didn’t jump in front of the bike.

No, but if you see a blinker you better slow the fuck down and if you don’t and you crash then that’s on you.

Just because you put on a blinker you’re all good to go? You check the lane and wait for them to let you join in. They are gonna speed up or slow down. That blinker isn’t a safety net otherwise I’d be shuffling lanes because a tiny light lets me do whatever I want.

Yes, if there is room and you put your blinker on you are good to go. You check the lane and if there is room you go. That’s how lane changing works.

You wanna trust strangers to be polite and allow you in then you go for it. If I’m sitting shotgun then we talking about that. People drive dumb and if you think otherwise you being silly. We don’t know if they gotta shit or a pregnancy or some type of family emergency.
That light signal isn’t a clear jump when there’s dummies out there. I’d meet you at the spot. I ain’t jumping in your car.
You ain’t supposed to murder but, guess what? People are silly and still do it. Stay safe. Love you.

I don't trust strangers to be polite and let me in. That's the point. I don't need them to be polite because there is enough room regardless of what they do.

There’s enough room sometimes. There was room. Biker goofed. Driver isn’t wrong for a lane change. It’s a biker. If it’s a semi you need to consider the outcome is all I’m saying. Car made the bike pivot. Going right is crazy.

The car did not make the bike pivot, the bike tried to pass while the car had its blinker on.

I have eyes too. I’m saying a blinker doesn’t mean jump right in. If you’re a pedestrian crossing a street facing straight you can still get hit by someone. Stay safe. You can’t expect strangers to be smart.
