Dear fellow driver,
The next time that you decide to make a right turn onto the street using the merge lane, please do not stop. The purpose of this lane is to keep traffic moving. When you stop to wait for the light to change you negate the purpose of this lane and the millions of dollars that were spent to construct it. So, next time either use the lane as it was meant to be used or find another way home. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
Sincerely,
Fellow motorist
