Explanation
To enter a freeway, you need to safely merge into the flow of traffic. This involves signaling your intention to merge, yielding to the vehicles already on the freeway, and entering at a speed that aligns with the flow of traffic. Match your speed to the speed of traffic in the right lane of the freeway, activate your turn signal, check your surroundings, and then merge carefully.
