I need full throttle, or close to that, at least about 3 times a week when I need to join a busy road at a T junction.

Sure, I can wait until there's a gap big enough to get into and accelerate moderately without frustrating the drivers on the main road. But that will frustrate the line of drivers behind me on the secondary road.

For confirmation go to people just like you.
For education go to people unlike yourself.
