Shoulders And MergingStandalone practice
Who is responsible for making a highway merge safe?
A travels in an acceleration lane beside B and C on the main highway. There is an illustrative opening between B and C.
Correct answer: Both entering drivers and highway drivers
Why
Alberta’s guide describes merging as a shared responsibility: neither the entering vehicle nor vehicles on the main road have automatic right-of-way. Choose a gap, signal and adjust speed smoothly. Main-road drivers should move left when safe to make room.
