You are in the acceleration lane of an interstate entrance ramp. A truck in the right travel lane is almost beside you. What should you do?
A occupies an acceleration lane alongside truck B in the right interstate travel lane. The acceleration lane ends ahead.
Correct answer: Adjust your speed to fit into a gap ahead of or behind the truck, and yield to it
Why
An acceleration lane gives you distance to reach the speed of interstate traffic before you merge. Stay to the right, signal left, and increase your speed while you look for a gap. A car that merges much slower than traffic can cause a rear-end crash or make other drivers brake hard.
