BDifficulty 3/5

At the start of an acceleration lane you establish that you cannot join safely and need to stop. Under the joining rule, where should that initial stop be made?

Correct answer

At the start of the lane, in this case requiring an initial stop.

At the start of the acceleration lane if necessary, so its length remains available to gain suitable speed before joining. Give way and assess others’ position, course and speed. Giving way alone does not always require stopping, and you must not force a merge if a hazard arises later.
