Question 7140

If you are driving in an acceleration lane, must you yield to vehicles traveling on the road you intend to merge onto?

  1. No, because I have the right-of-way.
  2. Yes.
  3. No, if I merge onto it from the right.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: Yes.

Yes. Anyone entering from the acceleration lane does not have the right-of-way and must yield to vehicles on the roadway. Entering from their right does not change anything, because the rule of yielding to the right applies to intersections without signs.
