I'm starting to see more and more people, usually in peak hour traffic, trying to block drivers using the entire length of an on-ramp like it's some sort of competition to get one or two cars ahead. Not only is it dangerous, but counterproductive as it forces people to stop instead of being able to zip merge, at a similar speed, at the end of the ramp. It just amazes me how people come up with new ways to be idiots.

Edit - I'm fully aware the image does not indicate a zip merge - lines indicate that the blue car must give way. However, when it's bumper to bumper traffic, the reality is the merge functions as a zip merge, given those joining have to rely on the ones already in the lane to give them space.
