[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Getting the zipper merge to work in DC is tough because it requires people to have a shared understanding of how traffic flow works, that we trust each other to fair and that we will take turns.

In a different world, one person not following the system (because they don't understand it or were never taught it) would not upset the apple cart. The rest of the drivers continue to zipper merge peacefully. It's just a single grain of rice stuck along the side of the funnel. Carry on. But we live in Beltwayville, so people get up in arms and using their cars to "educate" others.

As I remind my teenage driver: remember that about 1/4 of the cars out there have a gun. "Just move along to get along and always try to be a courteous, defensive driver. Yes, that awful person did win. It's OK."[/quote]

I keep hearing how fewer and fewer households own a gun. But at the same time I’m supposed to believe that 1/4 of all cars have one?

Pick a theme. [/quote]

Assume armed dangerous asshole and let them go.   That is what to teach your young drivers.   Getting to your destination a car or two behind is not a big deal.  The asshole driver is still going to be an asshole driver if you engage or not.[/quote]
