They have to get up to speed and there are so many on ramps that don't give enough space to actually get up to highway speeds. And some places (like my fucking dumbass city) have 30 of them spaced only 10 feet apart, so you have a lot of people going really slow getting on the freeway, so everyone else has to slow or stop to avoid hitting them.
Quite a few cities in the Northeast are designed this way, because they were done so in the 1950' swith the intent of highway traffic doing 40, maybe 45 MPH through town at maximum. To conserve expensive urban land, they have short ramps and merge areas that were appropriate for those speeds, not to mention the lower overall volume of traffic in those times. And now we're stuck with it, because it'll be a 200 year long court battle to eminent domain the 427 landowners who are all clinging to five square feet each in the patch you'd require for a longer ramp, all hoping for a fat payout to let go of it.
And nowadays, of course, everyone takes it as their god given right to do 90+ MPH on the freeway at all times, and get frothingly pissed off if they can't for any reason whatsoever. So the ramps aren't long enough anymore because no one is using the highway as designed.
I'd never heard that point and it's really interesting. I drive around the part of NJ that is close to NY, Bergen, Essex, Hudson Counties, and sometimes it's a straight up stop sign at the edge of a highway. And the problem is, there's no other way to go, I'm not cutting through a residential area or nothing, this is me coming from the turnpike onto Rt. 9 or something, massive thoroughfares with insane volumes. And you just do commit and that's it. Terrible design, but with the light you've shown on it, I can understand it a bit better.
As your attorney I advise you to buy a Hayabusa. It's the only way.
I didn't have a lot of sense when I was younger, but I had enough to not get a bike. I liked vroom vroom very much. I now drive 2018 Legacy, as befits my dad status.
You live in a shitty car centric designed city with poor public transportation.
Ftfy, fucking suburban shit ass sprawl is even spreading to my country like a plague, fuck that shit
There's actually a good bus system here. But it's literally the city in American Graffiti so the first part is accurate.
