“Dear PoPville,
I recently took a new job in Virginia that is not metro accessible, and my commute requires me to take Rock Creek Parkway to Beach Drive home. The “exit” to Beach Drive under the Taft Bridge is a mess every day.
I’m one of those people who dutifully waits in the long line, while dozens of people try to cut it, which only makes the traffic worse. That said, I know the efficiency of zipper merges, and this basically is two lanes merging into one.
Is this “exit” supposed to be a zipper merge?
Am I an idiot for waiting and boxing out the people trying to get over at the last second? Can we come to any kind of consensus on this? More likely I am just screaming into the void, in which case I welcome others to scream with me.“
