The only time I've made contact with another driver was when I was young and the other driver actually stopped his vehicle near the merge point on an Onramp to a major freeway.
Many years ago, I worked for a Chevy dealer, and had gone to the parts warehouse to get...parts. When I was getting on the freeway, the dork in front of me stopped at the top of the on ramp. Me, expecting the definition "acceleration lane" to be clear, going up the on ramp when he did that, saying, "OH, CRAP!". I almost rear-ended him. Nice, NEW '70 3/4T truck slamming into the back of that Lincoln would have been bad all around.
