I only ask because in certain parts of the country if a lane is
closing and prior warning is being given all the sheep immediately
abandon the about to be closed lane. Same sheep take great umbrage if
one tries to merge at the head of the queue as recommended. (i..e) Zip
merge as opposed to a comb merge)
To me the obvious choice should be a one to one merge at the merge
point but lots of pillocks take offence.


I am one of these pillocks. I don't expect you to push past a queue
at the supermarket so why should you do so on the road?

If you all queue at the same checkout leaving another one without a
queue why should I not go to that one?

Use all the tarmac is my philosophy.
