Driving Rule: Lane Change + Interstate?
|
What states require the driver to make a lane change to let oncoming vehicles enter the interstate?
(A list of the states, and if possible a link, appreciated).
Thank you. Drive safely.

There is no law like that.
Legally those on the on ramp, even though most states no longer place yield signs at the end of the acceleration lane to indicate it, are required to yield right of way to the vehicles on the interstate if they cannot safely merge from the ramp into the traffic lanes.
Most people will give up the lane when they see traffic coming onto the interstate (1) as a courtesy to the traffic entering the interstate & (2) to avoid being hit since no one yields anymore & will just cut right out in front of traffic creating a hazard placing theirs & others safety in jeopardy (in fact I've seen some road rage incidents due to the driver on the ramp had to yield to another vehicle & was under the misconception that he was in the right & the traffic was supposed to yield to him. The accident that followed this one road rage incident & the $350 citation finally convinced that driver that the ramp is required to yield to all other traffic). |

Why would anyone even consider challenging another drivers right to enter on to the highway. Law or no law, I just let them on by either changing lanes or slowing slightly to open up a space for them. Either way it's no big deal. |

not required by law, but you could find yourself in a mess if you don't
it's a courtesy to let incoming traffic enter as smoothly as possible |

I don't know if it's required, but it's a very nice thing to do. |

I have heard of some states, just a few, that may have this as a law. But in most states, it's not. It's just a courtesy. |
