Explanation
When entering a limited access highway, use the acceleration lane to match your speed with that of the vehicles already on the highway. While doing so, remember to check your blind spots to ensure there are no vehicles beside you that you might not have seen in your mirrors. Finally, be prepared to yield to any vehicles already on the freeway, allowing them the right-of-way as you merge.
