The Weaving Length Limit for Short Free Onramps
Onramp merging may be difficult if the onramp weaving/merging length is too short because a driver may find that even merging behind a neighboring large truck on the adjacent outside lane may not be completed safely. Because of insufficient weaving length for onramp acceleration, a slow merged vehic...
