7:50 it is the proper way to merge called zipper merge. Reduces differences in speeds between two lanes Reduces the overall length of traffic backup by as much as 40 percent Reduces congestion on freeway interchanges Creates a sense of fairness and equity that all lanes are moving at the same rate

The zipper *is* the most efficient way to merge lanes, it’s not even debatable. The problem is, for the zipper to work, everyone has to be on the same page. It rarely goes that smoothly in real life.

Seeing those two cops on horseback @ 12:22 reminded me of an encounter I had with an officer riding a horse. Let me explain. As I stated in my previous comment, I live in St. Louis, MO. Many years ago, I was in the neighboring city of St. Charles. It was the downtown district with many small shops and brick-paved roads near the Mississippi River. With it being a cool crisp day I had my window rolled down. While at a stop sign, a cop on horseback comes up beside me. Next thing I know I am gasping for air. The officer leaned over and asked me if everything was O.K. I responded "No. Your horse just farted." While laughing, the cop pats the horse on the head and says "Good boy." I then asked the officer, "Are horse farts the new way of fighting crime?"

7:57 @Akimbo , (Google this out) Depends on the State. That actually DOES look like it is set up to be a "Zip Merge lane" where you are REQUIRED BY LAW to go to the cones to merge and merging is SUPPOSED to be 1:1. For that reason, they do NOT put up markers stating "Right lane ends in X feet"...because they actually expect traffic t work properly. Technically--I'd not do it that way, if I knew that lane was ending (like it had been like that for a day or two...)
