Merging onto an Interstate

The thing that really irks me on freeway on-ramps is "WEAVE" signs. Engineers that design on-ramps that require those signs should be shot. You end up with vehicles that are attempting to accelerate to highway speeds trying to merge with vehicles trying to deceletate to 25 mph ramp speeds. Merging accelerating vehicles with decelerating vehicles defies the laws of physics.

That is what happens at the loop/pig tail dec/acceleration lanes. I also hate the straight acceleration lanes that are not completely straight causing you to not to be able to get up to speed. We have both here at the US-50/I-65 junction. Earlier today I saw a southbound 5th doing about 75+ in the left lane at this junction, you would have had to fall in behind him, way behind. He continued with that speed for over 30 miles before he slowed down a little. I was in my car not the rv.
