Freeways & High-Speed RoadsStandalone practice
You drive in the right lane of a freeway that has three lanes in your direction. A car on the entrance ramp ahead is trying to merge, and the lane to your left is clear. What should you do?
A is in the rightmost of three same-direction freeway lanes. Car B is ahead of A in an acceleration lane that tapers into A’s lane; the adjacent through lane to A’s left is empty.
Correct answer: Change to the clear left lane when it is safe, or adjust your speed to leave a gap
Why
The merging driver has the duty to yield, but a crash at a merge hurts both drivers. A space cushion at your sides gives you room to react when another vehicle comes close. Before you move left, check your mirror and blind spot and signal.
