The major cause of accidents between vehicles already on a highway and a vehicle entering a highway from an entrance ramp is because ramp motorists fail to YIELD.YIELD signs mean, allow traffic already on the highway to pass and proceed only when there is safe and clear distance to MERGE into moving traffic.
Vehicles on an On Ramp must always, always YIELD before merging into existing traffic on a highway! Additionally, cars at the back (rear) of the line of incoming cars on an On Ramp MUST allow the first vehicle in line to safely merge before any other vehicles attempt to merge. Even if the first merging vehicle is slow, other merging vehicles should wait their turns.
