Are we putting git quotes on cars now

Next time I put up a PR and someone leaves a comment I'm going to use this bumper sticker as a response.

People that merge going slower than traffic only to speed up AFTER they have forced traffic to either slow down or speed up to pass are monsters.
-
Though to be fair, people going significantly faster than the lane next to them aren't much better. If you want to go fast, move left. Almost every day on my commute, I need to speed up to like 70 to merge, slow down to 60 to move left, then back up to 70 to move left again.
I think we should enforce a "no passing on the right" law, as well as a "no holding up traffic" law. If you're going slower than the flow of traffic, or if you get frustrated with the person in front going slower than the speed of traffic, you should get a ticket. That would probably solve both problems if enforced consistently. But instead, police enforce speed limits, which isn't really the root of the problem. I haven't really seen people lose control and cause a massive pileup, usually it's someone hitting a car they're not expecting to be there (technically their fault, but the law is poor here); it would likely be avoided if you only could expect faster traffic on the left and slower traffic on the right.

One time when I was driving to work, I was stopped waiting for a traffic light behind some other cars, and a guy in the opposite lane was waiting for a gap to turn onto a parking lot.
Traffic started moving, and I was about to go, but decided to stop and let the guy in first.
But from his perspective it looked for a second like I wasn't stopping. And that single hand movement that went from "fuck you" finger to "thank you" wave made my day.

Go towards the end of the zipper and put your turn signal on. I'll let you in.
Don't: go to the end of the zipper with the turn signal on and just follow the shoulder line assuming I'll let you in. You actually have to yield. If you use the shoulder because no one let you in right away and you couldn't be assed to slow down even a little I'll actively block your criminal ass.
-
What's worst is people trying to get in right a the beginning of the shoulder of a long lane. They cause traffic for both lanes.
Just fucking go to the end of the lane, adjust your speed to merge with traffic.
-
I actually understand that one. It feels like going to the end is cheating, cutting they line. I used to do that until I learned it was bad for traffic and against design.
Probably because I've seen enough people get IN the ending lane just to zip ahead or people speed down the shoulder past where it ended.

Christ, you get it... If only 98% more of the population understood.

I can relate. Merging with tears in your eyes is hard
-
Yeah good luck reading that at freeway speeds
-
If you're struggling to merge at highway speeds, you're doing it wrong.

The blinker is a right of passage. /s

IIRC, I saw this one on the Upper Left Coast last month, though it may've been a red hatchback. 🤷🏼♂️
-
I've never had the urge to get a bumper sticker until now.
-
Depends .... cry in angry rage? ... or cry in a crippling sense of powerlessness and hopelessness?
-
Depends on the day. Usually both.

I just saw one of these for the first time a couple days ago!

You’re not a donorcycle and can behave; Comon in.
-
Not very well thought of, you need that person to merge in first before you can see it.
-
For most of the world, that's positioned on the corner of the merging vehicle closest to the merge allower (?) vehicle, so... No.
In other words, if you're merging from behind, then you're passing on the right and giving no signal as to your intent. Both are citable offenses and will get your insurance to side with any other drivers you end up colliding with by being a dumbass. 😘

We need that one geoguesser guy to figure out where this is

If you're an asshole who can't get up to speed or has to be in front, lolol nah.
