In a Weave Lane, who has the right of way?

In a Weave Lane, the situation typically involves a section of roadway where vehicles can either enter from an entrance ramp or exit via an exit ramp, creating a complex interaction between those merging onto the expressway and those leaving it. The correct understanding is that the driver exiting the expressway has the right of way.

This is because the driver exiting is transitioning off the expressway and needs to maintain their path without interference from merging traffic. Since drivers entering from the entrance ramp must yield to those already on the roadway, the exiting driver has the priority. This rule helps to reduce the risk of collisions in this often-congested area, where the paths of different vehicles overlap.

Understanding this principle helps drivers recognize when they must yield and promotes safer driving behavior in Weave Lane scenarios.
