BDifficulty 2/5

You travel in an ordinary motorway lane and a car intends to join from an acceleration lane. What must you do?

Correct answer

Help it merge as far as possible and safely.

Help the car merge as far as possible, adjusting speed prudently or changing lane only when permitted and safe. This does not give the joining car priority: it must give way. Do not create danger or make a forced lane change. This question does not concern public transport leaving a signposted stop.
