Questions Learners Have About Highway Merging

Find answers to the most common queries learners have when practising Highway Merging, including how questions match the official theory exam in the Netherlands, how scoring works, and how this practice improves exam readiness.

What is the primary rule for merging onto a Dutch highway?

When merging onto a Dutch highway, you must always yield to traffic already on the main carriageway. Your main goal is to match their speed and find a safe gap to enter.

How should I use an acceleration lane effectively?

Use the entire length of the acceleration lane to build up speed, matching the speed of traffic on the highway. This allows you to find a safe gap and merge smoothly without impeding other drivers.

What if two vehicles are merging at the same time?

If two vehicles are on the acceleration lane approaching the merge point simultaneously, both must still yield to traffic on the main carriageway. They should then coordinate safely to merge one after the other, or adjust positions to merge side-by-side if sufficient space allows, ensuring not to block the main traffic flow.

Is it ever allowed to stop on an acceleration lane?

Generally, you should never stop on an acceleration lane unless traffic on the highway has come to a complete standstill. Stopping unnecessarily is dangerous as it creates a significant speed differential with oncoming highway traffic.

How does the Dutch driving theory exam test merging rules?

The Dutch driving theory exam tests merging rules through scenario-based questions that require you to identify correct priority, safe speeds, and appropriate actions when entering a highway or reacting to other merging vehicles.
