These asshats cause a lot of accidents because they can't judge traffic speed and feel it is just fine to pull into a freeway lane from a stop.

Yep, and they accelerate like they are on a Sun drive. Many folks are afraid to floor the gas and hear the motor rev to redline. Near my home the freeway has a 75mph speed limit and the normal speed is 80-85mph. It's shocking how many folks "merge" at 45-60mph onto an Interstate (I10) with traffic going 80+mph.
