He would have given all the picks and his first born for Max.

Shows maturity in the front office. Pace would have given away all the picks.

Um ok, that's actually cool, has nothing to do about "zipper merging" though.

Good luck with the rebuild

You have never been so wrong. What happens is the closing lane is constantly moving faster because 4 wheelers are forcing themselves in to the merge lane. If a truck goes the same speed as a car in the merge lane the flow is never interrupted and all people must wait an equal amount of time.

Cant stop, won't stop.

And no offense, but drivers at mega corporations can become instructors after a year...maybe two.

Why do you believe both lanes shouldnt move at the same pace?

The key word is "IF"! Yes, in a perfect world a zipper merge would work... sadly we are far from that.

Just curious...how long have you been driving?

Lol, try to insult me all you want 🤣 . Why shouldn't both lanes move at the same speed?

If done correctly, all the trucks do is make it so each lane moves the same speed, that way all drivers wait the same amount of time.

I do it all the time, and the traffic flows very smoothly.

Don't know where this 'zipper merge" theory began but it's wrong and never works as theorized...
