    Completely wrong.

    Zipper merging is a merging technique. It doesn’t give a fuck where it happens. Period. Ever.

    What determines how many cars get through is ONLY determined by how many through-lanes there are and how fast traffic can flow. The morons flying up an empty closing lane just to cram into a lane that’s already slow or stopped, ARE NOT ZIPPER MERGING. Ever. They’re dipshits cutting in line. Period. Ever.

    They NEVER help solve congestion. For fuck’s sake, this is not a hard concept, but all you idiots apparently cannot even fathom why traffic slows down when a lane is GOING AWAY. Fuck, humanity is doomed if ya’ll are even remotely ‘average’ intelligence…
