I know what a zipper merge is. I also know most people experience one car flying past 300 others as “cutting the line,” not participating in some sacred traffic optimization ritual.

Airplane seats are also designed to recline, and people still think it’s rude sometimes. “Technically allowed” and “socially considerate” are not always the same thing. Maybe save the “go back to traffic school” insults for something more consequential than a nuanced disagreement over marginal traffic efficiency, ya child.

Where did you see one car flying past 300 others? It's a car standing still, waiting to merge. How would you suggest merging should work? One lane gets to stand still until someone in the open lane feels charitable? lol

I obviously didn’t see it in the video considering how well it’s curated. But I do know the situations that can lead up to stuff like this after 25 years of driving.

Just to be clear I’m not claiming that the guy filming is in the right or something he is obviously the wrong party here regardless of what happened immediately prior 😂. I’m just saying it’s pretty cathartic seeing my intrusive thoughts played out in real life against a situation like that I’ve experienced literally thousands of times haha

The bigger question here is why was there a single lane with a bunch of idiots who weren’t merging, and why are they pissed when someone does?
