Many a time I have waited for the "kind soul" who let someone make a turn(or merge)and thus held up many vehicles waiting to go straight.
In the mind of someone who thinks their are being kind they ignore the fact that they've just made 10 other people wait. Just follow the law! Unless the stopping of your car/cart will happen anyway due to traffic ahead of you then keep on riding. That "poor soul" who has to wait to enter is obeying the law....you are NOT. You make driving any wheeled conveyance MORE dangerous.

You missed the point. No where did I say the cars STOPPED to let them in. Its the cars that speed up to make sure no cart can merge even though the cart has plenty of time to merge. It's interesting to watch as the cars, trucks and even UPS speed up and cross into the oncoming lane swerving to miss the cart, just to make sure the cart will not be in front of them. The cars do not stop to let carts in.
I am talking about the kind SOUL who actually allow them to merge with out running them over.
So your comment That you are NOT obeying the law, and MORE dangerous is a little over the top, TRY Reading My Post As Written. Only your post stated cars STOPPING......Since I am the one watching from my backyard, it not a here say it's a fact that can be watched at anytime of the day. And on occasion get to call 911 to report the accident that closes the road for few hours.
