Question 6322

When merging your motor vehicle onto a freeway via the acceleration lane, what must you keep in mind?

  1. The position, path of travel, and speed of approaching vehicles.
  2. That you must always stop at the end of the merging lane.
  3. That you are not required to yield the right-of-way to vehicles traveling on the freeway.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: The position, path of travel, and speed of approaching vehicles.

To merge safely, take into account the position, path, and speed of vehicles approaching on the freeway, and yield to them. Stopping is not required, and if you have to stop, do so at the beginning of the acceleration lane, not at the end.
