Why do people from Stoneham merge on to I-93 at 25 mph? (lemmy.world)

I just moved here from FL and this seems insane to me. Is this normal? They're going to get someone killed, the limit is 65 mph at that ramp. I wish it was like a one time thing but it's like every 3rd day I get stuck behind a different car that merges below 30 mph and then eventually will get up to speed a couple of miles down the road. Am I crazy?

People are also afraid to use their gas pedal. It's ok to use it to get up to speed at a sufficient pace or even to get you into a better position when changing lanes.
