Explanation
If you need to enter the interstate on a short entrance ramp and there is no acceleration lane, check for a gap in traffic in the nearest lane. Do not try to merge into a gap that is too small. Speed up, use your turn signal, and enter the interstate only after you have identified a large enough gap in traffic.
