Does anyone ever think to leave themselves some room to accelerate on an entry ramp? If everyone is even doing the speed limit (55), which they are not, how the hell do you expect to accelerate up to 55 with no room starting from a stop at the end of a ramp? At least stop up on the ramp well before if there is no way you are going to get on. At least give yourself a fighting chance. What I also love it the idiot behind you complaining that you stopped up before the curve of the ramp when they expect everyone who is already on the road to just part ways so you can merge or do they expect you to get stuck at the end of the ramp.. THAT is never going to happen. NYers would sooner block you into a wall or off the road than leave enough room for others to merge. Besides, when is there ever so little traffic that you have the space to leave any amount of room much less for the guy merging in. Also love when they merge on going slower than the current speed causing you to slow down. I have seen rear end accidents caused by people entering too slow. If you do not wish to drive the current pace, take the side roads!Boy is that right! Just this morning, the genius in front of me came to a complete stop at the end of an entrance ramp for the interstate with traffic going 70+. Instead of watching and picking a place to merge in, they just park it and wait. Somehow in 40 years of driving I’ve never had to do that.
OP, glad it worked out and stay safe.
