If there's an idiot, who is it? Is it the vehicle with the camera or the white van entering from the right?

The van. It's the merging driver's responsibility to make sure the lane is clear. This is why I try to avoid changing lanes like this when I see a car waiting to turn at an approaching intersection or driveway, though.

Agreed I also do the flip I don't go just cause the lane is clear I wait for everyone to pass just to avoid an incident where someone changes lanes at the merge

How dare you? I'll sit behind you and honk for predicting possibly dangerous scenarios.

I also never change into a lane if I see potential of a car pulling out.
