Agree. The cars have the right of way in that situation. However, I do understand what the OP is trying to say. She had plenty of room to merge onto the main roadway in her cart but the motorist in the car sped up so the cart could not merge in.

Personally, I do not come to a complete stop in the MM path to merge onto the main roadway. I turn on my directional and make my move when there is plenty of room. I have never had a car speed up to prevent me from merging onto the main roadway. I'm just very lucky, I guess.
