You are about to enter an interstate from an acceleration lane. Which traffic has priority at your merge?
A is on an entrance lane beside interstate traffic B and C. The entrance lane tapers toward their roadway.
Correct answer: Traffic already on the interstate; yield and merge into a safe opening.
Why
Yield to approaching interstate traffic. Signal, check beside and behind, and merge smoothly into a safe opening. A signal does not require mainline traffic to move over for you.
