I'm curious to know what driving schools are teaching new drivers these days when it comes to merging onto the highway. I was taught in driver's training that it's the driver's responsibility who is merging to enter the highway in such a way that doesn't disrupt the flow of traffic on the highway. Now days people seem to think merging at 35 mph and making everyone on the highway get out of their way is the proper way to do it. Another thing I see people do all the time, when I see that someone is merging and I'm on the highway, I will move over into the left lane (as long as it's clear) to leave the right lane open for the merger. The merger will then merge right next to me and drive exactly the same speed I'm driving. Now I'm stuck in the left lane and can't move over, something that can't be done for very long without some mega speeder coming up from behind to ride my bumper, so then I either have to speed up or slow down so I can move back over into the right lane. I don't think driving schools are teaching people how to merge, that or these people are pushing memory erase as soon as they're done with driving school...
