Cruise Control Set at 55

[SeaJay]

The metered ramp lights may not get everyone to come to a complete stop, but they do get folks looking a little harder at the merge rather than just shutting their eyes, stepping on the gas and assuming folks already on the highway will let them in.

Your post really makes no sense at all in any context.

OMG. For sure. It's dangerous. This is every Prius owner around here. Except it's usually 45 merging into an average highway speed of 75.

My variants:
- 2 prii: one slow, one is 80 by the time is merging around the slow one and cut 3 lines to the left.
- sport cars: usually a chevy SS just humming at 55; even truck are doing 60-70....

This happens a LOT.....

It's why you hear other people say things like "I hate all people" and stuff like that
