texas style? hell, in houston there's plenty of places where the acceleration lane is so short that a 300hp sports car has a hard time merging even at full throttle. construction zones are a bitch.
yeah i know what you meant though... texas as in oversized. when you have an entire MILE to get up to a safe merging speed, there's no reason for people to merge in so much slower and cause problems.
this wasn't a construction zone. and i expect that in any reasonable country, the laws say the vehicle already on the main lanes has the right of way, and the merging vehicle is the one who has to modify its speed to be able to merge. yes, in heavy traffic that goes out the window, but this wasn't heavy traffic either.
