Very rare in UK at least .. and the few that exist are only active when traffic is at a near standstill.

- pandaman 5y agoYeah, they are the same in the US, only metered when there is a lot of traffic. Which exacerbates the need for acceleration because you need not only match the speed before the ramp ends but also find a hole in the heavy traffic.
- mattlondon 5y agoWhy do you need to accelerate so much if the traffic is so slow? Perhaps this is a cultural thing, but bad traffic here means stationary or less than walking speed. There is no need for hot rod acceleration in these situations!
- pandaman 5y agoDon't need to accelerate if the traffic is slow, need to accelerate if the traffic is heavy i.e. a lot of cars driving on the same road at 60-70 mph.
