Turns, Lanes, Passing & MergingStandalone practice
How should a driver use an acceleration lane to enter a limited-access highway?
A is in an acceleration lane beside the freeway. Silver C is behind the intended gap and silver B is ahead. All three cars retain their lanes in the question view.
Correct answer: Reach the speed of traffic, signal, and merge into a safe gap.
Why
The acceleration lane gives a driver room to build speed and merge without forcing highway traffic to brake.
