When merging, you should:

Pass the other vehicle
Enter the lane quickly
Signal and yield to vehicles already in the lane
Accelerate aggressively

The correct answer is: Signal and yield to vehicles already in the lane

Merging is the process of joining a road or lane from another entry point. When doing so, it is important to signal your intentions and yield to vehicles already in the lane. This ensures that all drivers have enough time to adjust their speed and make room for the merging vehicle. Passing the other vehicle (option A) is not a safe or appropriate way to merge, as it can cause accidents or create unnecessary traffic congestion. Entering the lane quickly (option B) can also be dangerous, as it may not give other drivers enough time to react and make room for the merging vehicle. Accelerating aggressively (option D) is also not recommended, as it can lead to sudden and unsafe lane changes. Therefore, the best option for merging safely is to signal and yield to vehicles already in the lane, as stated in option C.
