Unfortunately most onramps in MA seem to have yield signs on them (usually well back from where you actually merge onto the highway) so that is part of the problem. And then there are some onramps where you simply can not get to speed and merge onto the road without dying such as Rt. 1 in the Saugus area or Rt. 2 in the Fitchburg area. The on-ramps come in a sharp curve and then only give you 50 feet before you are fully on the highway so no real way to gain any speed coming out of the curve onto the main road.

The on ramp for rt 2 westbound in Shirley actually has a stop sign at the end. Beautifully designed

I come from further west every morning and I always try to get over to the left lane but I do not envy those poor souls trying to merge there

The entirely of Rt. 1 is a warcrime. Also, the 93/95 interchange should be taken out behind the chemical shed and shot.
