Any normal situation though, I think I'm very generous and letting people in is the nice thing to do. Only one car a time though. Let's not get crazy.

I also think a lot of our lane-changing angst issues would be lessened if people waived more. People used to give a thank you wave in this city when someone let them in, or a sorry wave if they made a mistake. Now very few people wave at all. I'll forgive pretty much anything if there's a wave.
I am firmly in the camp of using all available space and effective merging which requires both parties to do it right.

However, Memorial to NB Deerfoot is a different scenario as it is a lane change from the left to the right and requires driving by about 1000 cars doing it right. I must admit to being that ######bag on occassion though. But I did wave.
