Explanation
All expressways have an entrance ramp, an acceleration lane, and a merging area. The entrance ramp is used for checking for gaps in traffic and signaling the merge. On the acceleration lane, drivers should adjust their speed to match the flow of traffic to merge safely without causing a rear-end collision. Drivers should merge into traffic when it is safe, yielding the right-of-way to vehicles on the highway.
