HanoiVillan Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 2 hours ago, blandy said: The dynamics don't work like that. When people whizz down to the end of a closed lane and then, at the last minute want to filter to an open lane it means that lane's traffic has to stop moving, given a medium to high density of traffic (which there almost always is when motorway or Dual carriage ways are partially closed. When the traffic stops, all the gaps close and it ripples right down. Then when johnny pillock has been let in, it starts moving again, and that ripples back up the line. Leading to a bigger build up of traffic and longer delays. All to let one numpty push in. Then repeat. The only way it can go smoothly is for traffic to keep moving, which means no whizzing down the end and trying to push in. People who do that are complete words removed. First against the wall come the revolution. Instead, they should filter at the first opportunity and maintain a gap to the car in front to keep the traffic moving to everyone's advantage. Or, everyone uses both lanes and does a zipper feed 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s not like that down in Devon, especially in the summer months. roads clogged up by Nigels poorly towing shitty caravans for their annual pilgrimage to the seaside.

Launcestons alright, some nice pubs but has its fair share on six fingered folk too (it’s no Camborne in that respect though - there’s a town with a very limited gene pool!!!) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But that's not (if I understood right) what was being proposed for a 3 lane into one scenario, and talk of whizzing down to the end of the lane being closed off and then pulling into the open lane. But basically in dense traffic, which you get when there's lane closures on a busy highway, people zooming down right to the end of the closed lane(s) are words removed and should be shot. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
