Question 7322

The green vehicle wants to merge onto the roadway on which the red vehicle is traveling; who has the right-of-way?

  1. The vehicle traveling at the higher speed.
  2. The red vehicle.
  3. The green vehicle.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: The red vehicle.

The green vehicle is merging onto the roadway and must yield to those already traveling on it, such as the red vehicle. The acceleration lane is for reaching the appropriate speed, but it does not give you the right-of-way. Each vehicle's speed does not determine who goes first either.
