Nothing drives me more crazy than selfish drivers. In construction, here in the Southern Tier, we can see them everywhere. They cause accidents and delays.

On my way home Friday on 81S, I saw lots of selfish and uneducated drivers. The backup for the construction zone that starts at exit 1 (Kirkwood) was past the 5 Mile Point exit! It was all due to improper merging.

People were merging early, creating a third lane, and letting too many cars into the merge lane.it is amazing how people don't know how to merge around here. Even New York City drivers do it right! It's called the zipper merge.

Here is a great way to explain it.
