Simple, orderly zippering when a lane actually ends is the way. Wasting that useful pavement to create slower traffic and more traffic jam is insane and should be ticketed.
The most infuriating are the wannabe policeman that straddle both lanes to stop people passing.
Like, if you wanna sit in a queue for no reason then good for you, don't stop people passing that have actually bothered to read the highway code.
Yeah. It isn't about cheating, fairness, who got in a lane first. Isn't territory to defend. We don't have to enforce rules on each other. The traffic planners and road crews went through a bit of effort with like signs and cones and shit to tell us where they want us to merge. Zippering helps everyone go faster. Kinda why the planners want us to do it.
