re: When merging from two lanes

to one lane on a typical hwy...wait until the very end. The morons that try to switch lanes 100 yards too soon are the ones who hold up traffic because no one cares to let them in. When there's no road left it takes choice out of the matter (merge or wreck) thus speeding things up. This is the way things are intended to be. Edit: in this scenario traffic is moving along very well. Why come to a complete stop 150 yards before you have to? Only to sit there and wait for someone to let you in?
It's fun to stop 1 mile back in your lane, but make no attempt to merge, just to prevent you from moving up. Usually the car behind me (i.e. you) is pissed, while everyone in the other lane approves. And surprise, surprise, I never have any problems merging when I do that. It's almost like people are happy to let me in...once we get to the end of course.
18 wheelers are great for this to.

This. The people that do this perpetuate the problem, often because they are scared of people that behave a lot like some of the posters in this thread. I always find that after I swing by them on the shoulder the traffic is actually moving enough 1/2 mile down the road to safely merge. Meanwhile that person has effectively stopped two lanes of traffic.

It's fun for inbreds maybe. You only see this level of stupidity in the South.
