You are about to enter the main lanes of an expressway along the acceleration lane at an interchange. Vehicles are traveling at a steady speed in the outer main lane. What is the most appropriate way to drive?
💡 Hint
A vehicle entering an expressway must not obstruct vehicles already traveling on it (Article 65(1) of the Road Traffic Act). Think about who has priority, and what danger arises if you stop on the acceleration lane.
Answer: ③
Explanation
Article 65(1) prohibits a vehicle entering an expressway (other than an emergency vehicle) from obstructing vehicles already traveling on it. The entering car must therefore match the main-lane speed and pick a safe gap. Stopping midway in the acceleration lane raises the risk of a rear-end collision and makes merging even harder.
