Here I may have to disagree with you. The point of a merge ramp is so that you can accelerate to the traffic speed BEFORE you merge into the traffic lane. I see too many people go slow on them, only to pull into faster-moving traffic (causing chain-reaction braking many cars back). May save you a bit of gas, but causes all those other people to waste theirs.
