On 18th Street going north the "merge ahead" sign is 3 blocks away!!!  
Drivers can't retain that info. Lol.  
Merge signs should be placed at each block approaching Rosser Avenue.  
The merge sign between Rosser and Pacific is too late.  
Maybe for a day the COP group could deligently point to the sign as drivers go by.  
 
Traffic going south on 1st Street North before Kirkcaldy do not have a "merge ahead" sign at all!! So drivers don't think to watch for traffic coming off of Kirkcaldy.  
 
Having a driver's licence doesn't mean you're courteous or attentive.

These type of merges are ervreywhrr. The same type of signage is used for NB 18th onto EB Braecrest as the afforementioned turn onto SB 1st.  
 
Even from SB PTH5 to WB Transcan, and from WB 110 onto NB PTH10 it's all just a lousy yield sign, regardless of the type of merge.  
 
Your beef is clearly with the Province and their inadequate signage. This time, drivers are off the hook.  
 
Traffic court adjourned.

TEN said "Never paid much attention to this before but today as I was driving through the intersection of highway 1 and 5 I noticed that the merge lane from 5 entering to eastbound 1 has a yield sign.     My thought is that if both through lanes are full and you are trying to merge but have no room, it then would make sense that you be the one to yield, not those already in the through lanes.   It should be common sense, but some people maybe need a sign. "

you are correct  
 
the proper way to enter on one of these intersections is to wait at the entrance of the on ramp until it is safe to merge (even tho its not an actual ramp, its treated like one) That way you have the merge lane to speed up, matching speed of traffic as closely as possible, pick your spot , signal and merge,  
 
same as on kirkaldy, there is not a signage error. People entering 1st are to wait at the corner until it looks like they can merge THEN use the acceleration lane to complete the merge, but 1st has the right of way, that is why there is a yield sign  
 
i find it hilarious that the majority of people complaining about bad drivers are just as confused about the rules :D

A driver might have to slow or stop, depending on if there is traffic coming in the LH lane. (thereby yielding the ROW)  
 
Personally, I wouldn't count on drivers already in the traffic flow to switch to the RH lane, even though it's probably recommended, if not required.
