What is a common mistake when entering the freeway from an on-ramp?

Coming to a complete stop when entering the freeway from an on-ramp is a common mistake because freeways are designed for high-speed traffic, and stopping can create dangerous situations for both the vehicle coming onto the freeway and the vehicles already on it. The flow of traffic on the freeway is usually moving at high speeds, and stopping on the on-ramp can disrupt that flow, leading to potential collisions and causing delays for other drivers. Ideally, drivers should merge onto the freeway by adjusting their speed to match the traffic conditions, using the acceleration lane to gain the necessary speed for a safe merge. This ensures a smoother transition and helps maintain safety for everyone on the road.
