More heys get jammed up and create late ending by the oncoming traffic not being able to pass freely. A sufficient loop on the end is one of the things that allows the traffic to maintain momentum and complete the move on time. Other conditions can also create traffic problems as well. The rule of the Golden Mean applies here, I think,...too wide, and you are late, too small and the people who have to stop or go around you are late. Bob
