Bonus point for the fuckers that speed up in order to pass as many people as possible

Oh no, they definitely read it. They just don’t care and expect you to let the merge.

Few things bring me joy like showing just a wee bit of room to bait those fools to try to cut a dozen people off just to slowly close the gap as they approach my blind spot and force them behind me
I watch people get out of line then dash down the single file all to get 4 cars ahead so they get to work 4sec faster. No sympathy for antisocial scum

Which they can’t do if everybody stays in lane and waits till the last moment.

Because that’s the correct procedure
Tempus_Fugit@lemmy.world 22 hours ago
No its not. If all the cars are in one lane and you drive past all of those cars in the empty lane and then expect all those cars you passed to let you merge, you’re a piece of shit.

Why would all of the cars be in one lane before the lane closes? That’s silly

I hate to break it to you, but you have to merge before the lane closes. If it’s 20 feet or 200 feet, you’re still merging before the lane is closed.
Guess how fast you eat up hundreds of feet at highway speeds? In seconds.
If you want traffic to stay at highway speeds, you ALWAYS merge before you HAVE to leave your lane.
It’s the same principle with on ramps. The people racing up an on-ramp just to wedge into slower trafdic are helping no one.

Because the sign clearly says “lane closure ahead merge now.”

Yeah you dumbass. So use both lanes and then zipper merge where they merge
Tempus_Fugit@lemmy.world 16 hours ago
In sorry, but if all the cars are in the open lane and you zoom passed in the closing lane, I’m not going to let you merge. Deal with it.
