It's nearly as you've described it, but actually there's an additional ramp of motorists heading ONTO the highway sorta on top of the ramp. There are 3 lanes beside the ramps. The speed limit is 35 mph (~50 km/h) and the traffic when heavy is about 20 feet between successive cars. There are often large trucks too. The whole ugly mess is only about 1/4 mile long, but the most unpleasant and dangerous part of my commute for sure.
