Explanation

On roads with an acceleration lane, a driver who intends to use it to join the carriageway must make sure, at the start of that lane, that they can do so without danger to other users travelling on the carriageway, taking into account their position, path and speed, and even stopping if necessary to give way. They will then accelerate to reach a suitable speed at the end of the acceleration lane in order to join the traffic on the carriageway.
