Like, you gotta merge on the highway some time.

Is a "golf cart" considered a car now?

Most onramps are long enough to accelerate that car to merging speeds in time before merge. Problem is some people don't know how to merge.

Its fine but driver needs to be a bit more careful in ensuring a safe gap (including no one else trying to merge in from the other side) rather than hoping raw acceleration will get them out of trouble. But in all honesty the lane closest to the on-ramp merge is usually a slower lane anyway. Anyone who tries to deliberately go fast there (and undertake) is an idiot.

Some dont even know how to accelerate. The amount of people doing 50 when they decide to merge or have an on-ramp merging into them before merging onto the freeway is wayyyyyyyy too high.

You guys think youre hella smart merging at 65+ mph, but youre going to crash into someone. Its high-IQ to merge at 50 and speed up or slow down to avoid collisions.

its smartest to merge at close to the prevailing speed of surrounding cars, which is no doubt much higher than 50 mph on most american interstates. you have zero clue what your talking about

Yeah, our speed limit is 75, if you're not getting on at 70 minimum, that's a hazard. Everybody is doing at least 80

Edit: mph

You should absolutely be merging at 65-75 mph to move into the oncoming traffic at a similar speed. Going less, tapping your breaks while you look for an opening, you are asking to be rear ended, and are creating a hazard to oncoming cars. The whole point of a merge lane is to merge into the flow of traffic at a similar speed as the cars on the highway.

lol, I would be fine with 50 most of the time. The worst is going from residential road at 35 miles per hour, person accelerates to 45 and then starts to slow down.
