    I agree that the design is poor, but.......if you take a closer look
  at most of the exits on Mopac and I-35 in Austin, a lane is provided
  on the feeder/access road/service road (depending on your dialect) for
  exiting traffic, and those on the access road DO NOT have to yield.

    I don't like this, but it is the way that the lanes are marked.  So
  be careful before you go barrelling into someone thinking that you have
  the right of way.
