I wish people would understand the zipper merge and that people shouldn't form a long line since that pushes the congestion further back possibly through intersection and traffic lights causing gridlock which pushes the congestion to streets going perpendicular to the road with the merge. The problem is people think you're "cutting" if you stay in the non-blocked lane up until the merge point and then won't let you in.
