I just moved here from FL and this seems insane to me. Is this normal? They’re going to get someone killed, the limit is 65 mph at that ramp. I wish it was like a one time thing but it’s like every 3rd day I get stuck behind a different car that merges below 30 mph and then eventually will get up to speed a couple of miles down the road. Am I crazy?
I live in a different state, not close to you. A similar thing would happen a lot when I lived in the big city. People would hit their brakes or slow down toward the end of a ramp, while merging. A few times I had people come to a stop at the end of an on ramp.
So you would be reaching the speed of traffic, looking left for your spot to merge in to moving traffic. When you look straight ahead again, you end up slamming on your breaks because the person in font of you is slowing to a creep. Meanwhile traffic on the interstate is ripping by and now you have to try to merge.
