Who Has Priority When Two Lanes Merge Into One?
2 Answers
When two lanes merge into one and both are main lanes, the principle of alternating passage should be followed. Related information: 1. Precautions: In case of a collision, the rear vehicle is generally determined to be fully at fault. After a traffic accident occurs, the traffic management department of the public security organ will determine the responsibility of the parties involved based on their actions and the severity of their fault in causing the accident. This is known as the determination of traffic accident liability. 2. Extension: The division of compensation liability for traffic accidents is based on the determination of traffic accident liability. In China, the determination of traffic accident liability follows unified regulations, which categorize it into full responsibility, primary responsibility, equal responsibility, secondary responsibility, and no responsibility.
As a seasoned long-distance driver, I've witnessed too many chaotic scenes when two lanes merge into one. The actual rule should be to follow the zipper merge method—you go, then I go—just like the teeth of a zipper, to avoid collisions and traffic jams. Every time I encounter such a section, I slow down in advance and observe the intentions of nearby vehicles; if another driver wants to merge, I yield, because safety comes first. Many people don't understand this and force their way in, leading to accidents. Last year, I saw a rear-end collision happen precisely because no one yielded. In short, regardless of who has the technical advantage, driving calmly makes society more harmonious, and it also leads to smoother, more stress-free driving, preventing delays or trouble.
