.... if there is a lot of traffic they may not let you in.

Eh? Like hell...

When the elephant takes a line, walking thru the jungle, the smaller critters don't get stepped on...

When the elephant dithers, well, nobody knows what anyone is doing then.

Take a thoughtful line, solidly held, body language communicates that a trajectory is established, signal is on, and maintain course. They'll let you in, because it is clear there is no choice.

Shy away, you become the meal.

Got to figure, it only gets worse, for both you and some more traffic, if you don't get out there?

Happy coaching!

The problem with that spot is it is narrowed down to 2 lanes, rising in elevation, and going faster than than you can go at that point. A lot of times they are riding each others bumper and there is no way you can "bull" your way in. You have to wait for a good gap to occur.

I was on it a couple of times last spring when moving stuff down here and it was still 2 lanes there.....it really needs to have 2 more added.
