Re: Lane merging
"I give you the M60 N-bound near Stockport."
That's a little surprising considering that's a pretty new junction. I thought one of the worst was the de-merge from the A1(M) to the A194(M) at Birtley (Washington) Services, Despite the one mile advanced signage and road markings telling everyone that lane 3 (the "fast" lane) is a slip road, there are still people trying to 70-80mph up there then realising that mucking great lorry doing 50(ish) is REALLY allowed to be in lane 3 on this bit of motorway and IS NOT going to move out of their way! (It's at the top of a longish hill, big wagons are not at their "top" speed yet, This junction is about 40 years old and I'm sure many people would like it to be improved but the cost would be prohibitive, not to mention the industrial estates around it.
Biting the hand that feeds IT
