To merge, you have to be going traveling at relatively the same speed. The process of a zipper merge works because it gives cars in two lanes time to come to a similar speed and create spacing so two lanes can come together as one. This process does not work if the guy in the merge lane floors his accellerator in an attempt to race to the front of the line and aggressively squeeze between two cars who often times don't even know he is coming (FROM BEHIND AT MACH-II).
So technically you are correct, end of the lane and what not. But im not talking about the folks who do it correctly, im talking about speed racer, it's my road and your'e just in my way, I don't care if you die as long as I am at the red light first, a-hole guy.
