Regarding PT's comment, I assume it would be OK to call everyone living in Pahoa a know-it-all narcissist.
Anyway, I saw something a few months ago, and don't remember where, that mentioned the 3-6pm use of H-130's highway might get extended to 7pm. That would solve so many problems, because even at 6pm the rush hour isn't over. It seems such a simple thing to do, so am wondering why it's taking so long to do this.
As for merging, it makes much more sense to merge at the point where the merge occurs rather than getting into the left lane early. By merging early, all you're doing is increasing the amount of traffic in the left lane. The ideal situation is to have both lanes with equal amounts of traffic that merge at one single point. Please don't blame drivers in the shoulder lane from following the laws. The people who merge early are the ones causing the problem.
