Holy shit, I've seen people stop while trying to merge before (also know someone who got rear ended when the person in front of him stopped), and I sometimes see people slow down too much to let people merge, but a complete stop on the highway? Wow.
People don't fucking know how to merge btw. It is RARE to see someone do it correctly. About 90% of the time, if they do everything else right, they merge at too low a speed, say 40 mph in a 55, or 50 mph in a 70 (no matter how much room they have to get up to speed). And of course you have people not looking for gaps and just lazily throwing their car into the lane and hoping others will get out of their way, people purposely trying to block people from merging, etc.
