Your acceleration lane is about to end, and the cars in the right freeway lane leave no safe gap. Who must yield?
A nears the end of an acceleration lane. A line of silver cars in the right freeway lane leaves no safe entry gap.
Correct answer: You, because traffic already on the freeway has the right-of-way.
Why
Look for a gap early, while you still have lane length left, and adjust your speed to fit into it. If the lane is about to end and there is no gap, a slow, controlled stop is safer than forcing your way in. Drivers on the freeway should make room when they safely can, but you cannot count on it.
