I hate drivers who go up to the very end of a lane marked as "closed" then try get into the open lane, ahead of those of us who actually changed lanes when we saw the sign.
-- All that does is slow traffic down even more. Many road work areas now post signs to "use both lanes to merge point"

Exactly. Blocking one open lane or refusing to let people merge simply makes everything take longer. Using bth lanes to the merge point speeds things up as long as people cooperate at the merging point.
It totally infuriates mee when I see tractor trailers moving at 5 mph blocking lanes so that nobody can get past them. Sometimes when they're doing this the wreck or breakdown has already been cleared and they're blocking wide open lanes. Last time this happened to me, some turd in a Tahoe blocked me from getting to the next exit, even though the choke point was well past that exit. Idiots.
