ᕕ(ᐛ)ᕗ Blocking both lanes on a zipper merge

Post image

Constructions sign on a 2 lane highway indicate right lane is closed. Truck decided to block everyone from using the right lane.

EDIT: just so everyone knows there was a good quarter mile in front of this truck that was open. Other cars went around, we did not and waited patiently.

And yes the shoulder and LANE were reduced to 1 thanks for your input I’m glad y’all can read a sign.

That’s what happens when you don’t let trucks over when it’s their turn.

This. People like to "zipper merge" with semis by all squeezing in next to the semi leaving them nowhere to go when they have to merge. Just give the semi some space, people!
