Which vehicles have priority when merging from a standard road onto a motorway?

Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

At junctions and merging lanes, the general rule states that vehicles already travelling on the main road (in this case, the motorway) have priority over those attempting to merge. Drivers merging must observe traffic, use the acceleration lane to reach the appropriate speed, and yield if necessary, even stopping at the beginning of the lane if they cannot enter safely. Although vehicles on the motorway should facilitate the maneuver whenever possible, this does not negate their right of way.
