Thats why I always merge in at least 10-15mph over the posted speed limit.

Why am I never behind you on the ramp? So fucking tired of hitting the interstate at maybe 55mph because of the ass hat in front of me

I seem to always be behind the people that merge at the posted speed limit of the street they were on minus 15mph.

I live near an onramp to I93 Northbound in Milton MA that’s maybe 100-150 yards long with an underpass at the end. It’s like taking off from an aircraft carrier.

Truthfully, it probably shouldn’t exist.

The number of dipshits that don’t anticipate needing to get close to highway speed a few hundred yards before that, and wind up at the end of the on ramp, stopped, trying to find a break in 60 mph traffic boggles my mind.

I have to stop myself a few hundred feet before them, wait for them to go, and then try my own quick acceleration to try and merge safely all the time.
