Now by this point I've been stuck in traffic since Manhattan road. 58th has lights so it's not like there isn't ample opportunity to turn when opposing traffic has a red. Now the traffic jam that goes from Manhattan to 58th is actually caused by idiots trying to merge when the sign says yield.

Next worst is the Glenmore interchange. People going from WB Glenmore onto SB Blackfoot also have a yield, but nobody does.
This pisses me off too. People that can't read signs.

Some of the lanes are actually yields instead of merges, and so I have to yield (and sometimes stop). I get honked at for doing the merge lane stopping thing, yet they just don't realize they're the ones being the idiot as the sign clearly says otherwise.

Other signs like "No left turn between 3:30-6:30PM" and "Do not block intersection" are also notorious.
