Merging,, who wrote the book??

Here in Ontario, the one merging is responsible to make the merge safely, and there is no obligation on the vehicle already in the through lane to help out. My thought is that if some of these dumb-##### are too stupid to figure out that they need to speed up and blend into the flow, then let them sit on the shoulder for the whole day looking for an opening!
Whew, that feels better!

 

Believe it or not the law here in Missouri is whoever is on the INTERSTATE has to move left! OH Yeah I couldn't believe it either.
BUT In GA don't let a GSP see you move over especially on I75 north of Marietta,GA! They'll ticket you in a heartbeat!

 

If I can get over, I do.
If it's a truck or something having a tough time, I'll try and make a spot.

if it's a car, well, they can accelerate, i can't.

I'm amazed at the number of "drivers' (car) who drive all the way down the ramp, get to the end and realize "dang, there's a big old truck next to me, what should I do?"

floors me, every time.

 

That ain't what gets me. Wait till you can't get over and slow down to let one of them fools in. What do they do? Slow down beside you.....

 

As comedian Ron White says, "You can't fix stupid!"

 

That is exactly why I maintain my speed no matter what they are doing. It is NOT my responsibility to let them on the highway... Missouri or not. If they're too #### stupid to use the pedal on the right instead of the one on the left, they can ride down the shoulder until they get a clue.

 

A law probably written by some Prius-driving tree hugger who suffers from CFD.

 

I try to move over sometimes when I can if there isnt much traffic but sometimes you cant and I refuse to slam on my brakes when some idiot 4-wheeler is affraid to ease down on that accelerator pedal and have plenty of time to pass me up on the ramp. Its just utterly amazing how many cars seem to take longer than a big-rig does to get up to speed and merge onto the freeway.....

I had an instance in LA where some idiot in a Tahoe thought I was just sposed to move the hell out of his way while he was merging onto a freeway during rush hour traffic when there wasnt anywhere to go. He was practially driving down the emergency lane a short ways after the on ramp ended, pulled up beside me on the right, flipped me off, slowed down real quick, went around the back of me, pulled up beside me on the left, everyone in his car flipped me off and the next thing i saw was a soda-pop bottle come flyin at me.
