Those people are dicks trying to excuse their shitty behavior.

If that's the way to do it, why the fuck would everyone else choose to spend an eternity sitting in the turn lane? Why would the correct way be blocking traffic for the lane next to the turn lane?

I rarely sit in rush these days so it's been a while but the last time someone tried to "cut to the front of the line" so to speak in front of me, I blocked him and flipped the bird tbh. I don't have much tolerance for people who believe their time and energy are more important than everyone else's.

It's literally in the driver's manual where people learn to drive published by the states.

Zipper merge when two lanes are combining or merging, great. That doesn't excuse people on 695 stopping the left hand lane on this multi-lane highway, because they want to drive up all the way to the point that exit 23A is Ying off before merging over, even though there is a really long solid-white line turning lane for a good distance before the turn. Every single morning back when I made that commute there would be stop and go traffic for all the different lanes on the highway because people were doing that.
