Re: Stupid traffic question ...
If traffic was moving smoothly, I would have merged as soon as I saw the cones up ahead. But in this case, traffic was at a snail's pace because of the stoplight at the end.
Three open intersections and one other stoplight were blocked by this line of cars. If everyone had only filled both lanes and taken turns merging, it would have opened the light plus at least one intersection to cross-traffic.
I think it's easy for people to get grumpy and jealous when they sit in line next to an empty lane, even though they could have been sharing the other lane too. It's fair when you share. Don't blame me if you choose not to
