Zipper merges are designed to keep traffic moving by allowing drivers to take turns getting into one lane. And yes, that includes the drivers who pull all the way up to the barriers and merge just before the lane ends.
INDIANAPOLIS — At some point during your daily commute, you may come across construction zones with barrels and an alert to merge due to lane closures.
“A zipper merge is a very simple concept that allows motorists to share the road and alternate vehicles when they need to merge from right to left or from left to right,” Indiana State Police Captain Ron Galaviz said. “We’ve all been there. We’ve all seen that vehicle speed up on the left or right because they have to get there first,” Captain Galaviz said.On Thursday, many Indianapolis residents WRTV spoke with had no idea what zipper merging was.ISP says zipper merging is not required by law.
