Then you need to speed up. They don’t call it the “acceleration lane” for nothing.[/quote]

The merge ramp is where you begin to adjust your speed to merge with traffic (either speed up or down to merge). Very simple concept, unless there is a moron stopped in the merge lane.[/quote]

PP, you have no control over how other people drive. That's just a fact. They're going to drive the way they drive.

NP. And people who come to a dead stop in the merge lane are also very dangerous because they have just forced every car behind them to also come to a dead stop. I have never, ever, in all my years of driving around the US in multiple metropolitan areas had to come to a stop in a merge lane except when the car in front of me forced me to do so. I have never come to the end of a merge lane and not had space to merge. You use the lane to approach the speed of the other drivers, you quickly calculate if you need to speed up a little more or less depending on the cars around you, and you merge. This is very manageable at speeds of 40-60. It is very, very dangerous starting at 0.

It makes me incredibly angry when people endanger my life by not possessing a basic driving skill. I can be angry while I drive and not endanger anyone. Your platitudes are ridiculous.[/quote]
