she/her/hers, always in the middle of writing some sort of fantasy story about sad women making the world better.
from my research into this new leftist family phenomenon, it seems to be localized to a specific island in Greece, Kalokairi. The island doesn't seem to be appearing on maps, which means Big Nuclear Family is trying to hide it from us!

the distance traveled at an angle is greater than the distance of going directly ahead, meaning that to match the actual speed of traffic you need to accelerate into the new lane. otherwise the people traveling at speed will need to slow down to accommodate you merging into that lane.

not necessarily. if there's a gap next to me that i can move into, the safest way is to accelerate so that my car's actual forward momentum matches the speed of traffic, as my distance to travel is greater than if i were just staying in my lane.

the safest way to change lanes when everyone is going the same speed is to accelerate so that while you move on a diagonal your forward momentum is still the same as the other cars on the road. slowing down means you're a danger to the other drivers on the road.

changing lanes and passing aren't the same. you would need to change lanes to exit the highway unless you spend the entire time in the right lane, or to account for turning right onto a four-lane road and having to eventually turn left from that four-lane road.

changing lanes doesn't necessarily mean passing. for example, if you're in the left lane on a highway and you have an exit coming up, you need to change lanes so that you can exit. or because a two-lane road becomes a one-lane road and you need to merge.

The reason you shouldn't slow down to find an open spot in traffic is now you're creating a traffic jam. you slowing down causes everyone on the road behind you to slow down.
