It it merges on unmarked lanes, whoever is infront has right of way.
That's for QLD at least.

You are correct but this was lane changing not merging.
On merging, if the broken marked line continues all the way to the very end of the lane that merges then the lane that wishes to merge to the right has to give way to any traffic in the right hand lane, IF the broken marked line stops before the lane runs out then the vehicle in front has right of way.
