HOW TO MERGE ONTO A HIGHWAY OR INTERSTATE (DRIVING TUTORIAL)

HOW TO MERGE ONTO A HIGHWAY OR INTERSTATE (DRIVING TUTORIAL)

Today's video is about learning how to merge properly onto a highway, freeway or interstate. This maneuver can be tricky for new inexperience drivers. It requires a little bit of practice to master this technique.

Entering & Leaving Limited Access/Interstate Highways
All limited-access highway entrances have three basic parts: an entrance
ramp, an acceleration lane, and a merging area.
When entering an interstate highway:
1. On the entrance ramp, begin checking for an opening in traffic. Signal
your intent to merge onto the expressway.
2. Increase your speed as the ramp straightens into the acceleration lane.
Adjust your speed so that you can safely merge into the traffic when you
reach the end of the acceleration lane.
3. Merge into traffic when you can do so safely. You must yield the right of way to traffic on the highway. Do not stop in the acceleration lane
unless traffic is too heavy and there is no space for you to enter safely.

Stay in the right lane if you're a beginner, and don't be afraid of going slow as long as its the speed limit. Pick a gap between the car behind and in front, accelerate and adjust speed as needed. Simple

Everyone: do it during a non busy time!

Great advice. Watch out for those tricky and potentially dangerous yield areas where there IS NO merge lane. Usually there’s a sign posted that will say NO MERGE AREA but not always. In that case it’s always necessary to stop the vehicle and treat the yield sign like a stop sign and then check and make sure the lane you are merging into is completely clear. Always be sure to look ahead and confirm whether or not there is a merge lane and proceed accordingly as mentioned..Happy motoring and Stay safe!

The most important thing and most often not done is; You need to be going the same speed or a little faster than the traffic you are merging with. Why? because EVERY vehicle on the road can slow down at a faster rate than it can speed up. When you get to the merge point, if you can't slip right in, slow down enough to get in. ALWAYS, at the merge point, be going at least as fast as traffic you are merging with.
