If you were exceeding the speed limit, you deserved a ticket.
I drove the Washington DC Beltway for years and almost never exceeded the speed limit, even when merging. I would just gently merge into the right lane and the drivers would either slow down or move around me.

I don't know about you, but our cars came with brakes. If a driver merges slowly in front of me, I press the brake pedal (try it sometime) and the car slows down. If they keep crawling along, I go around them. No problem.
