Yes, that is ironic: the recommended speed limit (and actual car speed) is actually lower on the freeway on-ramp than on the city street!

And I also find it unnerving trying to look directly backwards trying to guess which cars will swerve at the last minute onto the ramp, usually without signalling. With the rapid acceleration and last minute lane changes, it is quite challenging to judge when there is a safe gap to ride across the on-ramp to continue on the cycle lane.

Most cities would have a traffic light, or maybe even a cross-walk at that location.
