That slip roads…
Onto motorways have to give way to traffic already on the motorway.
Try and match the speed of the traffic and merge smoothly.
Remember, if you can’t get out because the large lorry by the side of you can’t move over because lane 2 also has a great big lorry in it, blow your horn and give the driver who can’t move the finger, as well as gesticulating for him to stop on the hard shoulder for a good kicking. It’s also traditional to then side swipe and check brake as you pass because you’re still angry about not being let out.
this has been a public information rant
Clearly not a true professional like our good selves, I had similar with a Porsche driver the other week (minus the hand signals) when obviously his super fast car couldn’t accelerate on an empty slip road and out run a fully loaded decker being pulled by a gutless Volvo

You could have stayed and driven a gutless merc 
I could have done you’re right but at least yours have more poke than our diesel/methane monstrosities that never seem to work properly.

I’ll go 90-10% in my favour also tell them I want my own Volvo, 4 on 4 off and I don’t mind nights out.

Take it out of eco mode at the bottom of the hill and they pull pretty well. Same thing when you want to join off a slip road, take eco off and she’ll accelerate to a sensible joining speed quite nicely on cruise. I only tend to swap to manual and use all of the green band if it’s short/uphill and I’m running heavy.
