Explanation
When entering a freeway, entrance ramps will give you space to slow down, wait for a gap in traffic, and accelerate to reach the speed of traffic in the right lane of the freeway. If possible, avoid driving to the end of the ramp and stopping, or you won't have enough room to get up to the speed of traffic.
