Speaking of getting over....
Left lane closes on a 4 lane hiway in 2 miles. So people stack up in the right lane. Left lane still moving sporadically with cars doing 45-60 while right lane creeps at 20. Left lane mergers are waiting till the last second then whipping into the right lane. Who's the douchebag? The right lane "blockers" for clogging it up and NOT utilizing a zipper merge or the left lane "Cheaters" waiting till the last second to merge?

if right laners travel with merging space for the left laners, right laners would be traveling faster than if they were blocking. if left laners didn't merge at the last possible second and cause a stack up and the merged into the open spots, everyone would win. This country sucks at merging |

I didn't realize how fucked up OUR system was till I went to the UK and saw everything working (literally) like clockwork there.
EVERYONE zipper-merges and everyone left one car space in front of them. There WAS no blocking nor waiting till the last second. But then again...there's no "entitlement" feeling over there either. Shit just works there
