Question 5868
The driver of a vehicle intends to merge into traffic; must they first make sure they can do so safely?
- Yes, even by following another person's directions if necessary.
- No, because other drivers must help them merge into traffic.
- No, because they have the right-of-way.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: Yes, even by following another person's directions if necessary.
Yes. Before entering traffic, check that you can do so safely and yield to those already on the road. If you cannot see well, you can follow another person's directions. The fact that others must help you merge does not give you the right-of-way or spare you that check.
