If you put a sign that says these two lanes merge and have arrows pointing down at the two lanes, it would be quite clear.You're probably familiar with the Verrazano - Belt Parkway merge going eastbound. The right Belt Parkway lane (coming down from the BQE) and the left most Verrazano exit lane onto the Belt have to merge into one, right in the middle of the highway. Nobody has the right of way. The sign just tells them to merge. It's probably not the safest thing but it makes more sense than telling everybody on one side to stop and look for a clearing. I agree with you in that I opt for entry ramps that do not have "stop" signs, wherever they be. Another notable spot to avoid is the northbound W 230 St entrance onto the Deegan in the Bronx. But on the Southern State Pkwy there are lots of short entrances and I don't think they use stop signs. The cars just know that if they can't get in, they have to stop and wait. Or you can be aggressive and just force highway traffic to brake and let you in, if you're up for the risk. |
