| Topic | How are you supposed to merge into a single lane? |
| darkknight109 01/10/23 4:28:31 PM #16: | In free-flowing traffic, you speed up to the speed of the traffic, put on your signal, and look for a spot to safely join the flow. Pretty straightforward. In very slow traffic, the most efficient way for everyone is to go to the end of the merge lane and zipper-merge there. If you try to do it earlier in the lane, you are not making full use of the space given for merges and anyone who then goes past you in the merge lane and merges further down will further slow traffic in the traffic lane. By merging at the end point of the merge lane, you ensure that there is a single point of entry for traffic in the merge lane, thus optimizing the flow for both lanes. Seldom do people actually do this properly, however, instead just merging wherever they feel like it. --- Kill 1 man: You are a murderer. Kill 10 men: You are a monster. Kill 100 men: You are a hero.
