[QUOTE="Danny Tanner, post: 1304212, member: 10619"] 1. This is the exact situation when getting onto Tinker from I-40 E using the Hruskocy gate. There are 2 lanes leading up to the actual gate, the left lane comes from 29th st (opposite side of the interstate) and the right lane comes from the interstate's exit ramp. There is a stop sign there now (that everybody but me ignores, as well as the 25-35-25 MPH speed limit zones at this gate) but we have our own lane, yet people will still stop and wait for cars in the left lane to go by before they proceed to drive in the right lane. 2. The I-44 E onramp from Northwest Expressway by Penn Square Mall is a perfect example of this. This onramp has bold white lines filled with hash marks for a good 150 yards or so. I remember when learning how to drive my parents taught me to treat those white lines as if they're 6' tall concrete walls (except in the case of an emergency). Most people seem to treat this onramp the same way I do, but there's always at least 1 better-than-you idiot who drives right over them 100 yards prematurely as if he's too good to follow the lane until it's truly merge time.
