How to joining dual carriageway /motorway? Motorway/Dual Carriageway driving lesson!

Joining the motorway / Dual Carriageway from a slip road!
The slip road seems to be the most common way to enter the motorway and this means you have to match your vehicle’s speed with the speed of the traffic on the motorway.
You must give priority to the traffic already on the motorway, and you must never cross from the slip road and go directly into either the second or third lanes, stay in the first lane for a while until you've adjusted to the traffic, then you can make your planned move into the lanes to the right, should you need to.
Things to remember when joining the motorway:
* Give priority to traffic on the motorway.
* Assess and adjust your speed to match traffic already on the motorway.
* Use your mirror signal manoeuvre routine.
* Take a quick sideways glance to see if it is ok to proceed and to check the position of others.
* Try to avoid having to stop at the end of the slip road, unless the traffic on the motorway is moving very slowly.
* Indicate your intention to join the motorway, with a good long signal.
* Never force yourself into the motorway; there lies danger, but try to merge into the traffic.
* Never use the hard shoulder as a slip road.
The motorway speed:
Traffic on motorways travels at higher speeds than normal roads because mostly there are no bends, no junctions, roundabouts or steep hills, traffic lights or pedestrians.
However, because of the speeds involved, you have to give yourself greater margins and bigger spaces.
You may sometimes see signage telling you to travel no less than a certain amount - a minimum speed limit. Obey these signs. They are there for a reason!
