Explanation
When on the freeway, you should always be aware of other vehicles entering the roadway. If it is safe to do so, make room for merging vehicles by moving to an inside lane, signaling, and slowing down, if necessary. This allows merging vehicles to enter your lane more safely and helps reduce congestion on the road.
