Question

a group or formation of vehicles traveling on an expressway is called a(n):

• wolf pack
• velocitation
• flock

the condition of unconsciously driving too fast as a result of driving for long periods at high speeds

• common speed
• acceleration speed
• velocitation

the lane that permits drivers entering an expressway to accelerate to the speed of expressway traffic

• acceleration lane
• deceleration lane
• merging area

the stretch of roadway at the end of an acceleration lane where vehicles join the flow of traffic

• yielding area

Explanation:

Analyze Question 1

A group or formation of vehicles traveling close together on an expressway is commonly referred to as a "wolf pack." This is a dangerous situation because it reduces the space cushion around vehicles.

Analyze Question 2

The phenomenon of unconsciously driving too fast after driving at high speeds for long periods is called "velocitation." The driver becomes desensitized to the sensation of high speed.

Analyze Question 3

The lane specifically designed to allow entering drivers to increase their speed to match the flow of expressway traffic is the "acceleration lane."

Analyze Question 4

The stretch of roadway at the end of an acceleration lane where vehicles merge and join the flow of traffic is the merging area (partially visible, but logically completes the set).
