I watched this before my first highway lesson and the instructor said I did well. Very helpful video!
Thanks a lot, Tye!
Awesome. I am great at freeway driving, but this was an excellent refresher. I have my Class 5 road test in January, and hope to nail it on the first try.
When should you accelerate? Notice that there's a yellow line to the left that changes into a white line. That's the transition between the ramp speed and the highway speed. THAT'S when you should accelerate.
thank you Bob!!
Thank you Bob! This helped extremely.
Thanks mate
Thank you I always see the yellow line but never knew why
Thanks Bob
I had been watching all your vidoes before i took mu G2 exam and it helps alot i passed my exam for my first try! Now i am back again to watch more of your videos especially on how to merge in the Hi way, i am taking my G lesson soon. Thanks for tour vidoes it is helpfull.
Just passed my G test today, this was the main video I used for reference, I was an already pretty experienced highway driver but this video is incredible for those not sure about the fine details that instructors are looking for. Thank you so much, I’m so happy to be a graduated driver as the stress and anxiety road tests would bring me was no fun 😂
Hey Man.
This video really helps me today on passing my G test. Very briefly explain in this video every step to merge on a highway. Thanks
Thanks for watching, Muzammil!
Thanks, it really is helpful for me to understand the highway, focus on the road, keeping a lookout for my speed, looking at side mirrors to make sure that no car is coming near by and signal if there’s no car

Make a vedio on taylar street test
Please help me understand when you at 70 on the ramp how do you know it’s time to sped up to 90 - 100 and when it’s time to merge on the highway that’s for g downsview
Thank u
Thank you, Vidya!
gonna have my g2 road test to get full G license soon, thanks for help
Thanks for watching, friend!
Now I see I’ve been doing it right, it’s just 455holes in my city that are rude and don’t let me merge sometimes 🤐
Thank you! Very helpful
Thank you, Jack! :)
@@TorontoDrivers You're welcome!
The issue I have is my car doesnt accelerate very fast a rarely can get up to 100 by the time the end of the acceleration lane even pedal to the metal.
Thank you for amazing tips👍 I really appreciate your work.
How to take left when we are already at the middle of acceleration line but we don’t get chance to switch line because of the traffic. What we should do in this case, because acceleration line will get finish?? Please answer me I’m going for test in 2 days thanks
Hello and thank you. What should I do when my exit lane is the same lane as the merging lane? If I need to exit and there are cars merging in, can I slow down to let them pass so I can exit safely? Thank you so much in advance.
I had the same question but it looks like nobody reads the questions here.
I slowed down to 100 speed to 90 as vehicle on front of me i step on brake lightly, as vechile too close front of me, examiner failed me saying speed is low. Its depend on examiner mood, if you think safe to do so , i believe many examimer will not mind, my instructor let merge vehicle pass first then speed up to traffic speed. All about safety judgement
Can I use cruise control on my test?
Never been driving on highway, how can I know I am at half point of the acceleration lane?
♥️
Bro I'm 14 and I'm watching even though I still have 2 years? 😂😂 oh bummer. Well at least we don't have huge highways in Ottawa. It's essentially the same here too, right?
Hope you passed your test man it's been 2 years now
That sum like the ramp wen I go home
😬 are driving teachers suppose to take you to the highways? Lol I got my license but I still haven't merge on a highway 😅 this video it really helpful thank you
Not for G2
I'm glad it helped, Cassidy! Thank you!
I dont think we can go over the limit speed if the examiner request us to change lane to the left. The examiner can fail us for overspeeding though, especially those who are really strict
Yeah it's a shame there a bunch of different personalities when it comes to examiners. Some will doc marks for you "driving slow" others won't.
I've a highway exit related question, sometimes right most lane splits into 2 heads like Y and the right head goes to exit and left one goes straight. If I'm existing then should I indicate right to take the exit? I'm confused because technically I'm not changing lane, I'm just going to the right head of the same lane.
Very good question! A lot of my students used to ask me that. The answer is no. You do not need to indicate because if you do indicate then you might confuse the cars behind you into thinking that you are going to switch lanes. Hope this helps. :)
@@TorontoDrivers it does help, thanks so much. Your videos help a lot.
The picture in the thumbnail, shouldn't the car go into the inner lane since he is in the inner lane?
Does this work for USA too?
Are you supposed to slow down to get behind a car to then merge or are u supposed to speed up to get in front of a car to then merge? Or can you do both?
You can do both. You have to watch for an open spot, and then gauge whether or not speeding up or slowing down is required. :)
Sleepy Parrot ok thank u
@@sleepypanda8578 Great answer! Thank you for helping! 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Toronto Drivers Thank you! I’m learning a lot myself, I just got my G1 today haha.
Sleepy Parrot
Hope u got ur G2 easily, and I hope when u have ur road test, the road is not crowded just like me(when I had my road test, it’s just before they suspended all the road test in March during the pandemic, and that’s not a lot of traffic) :D
Up to the speed of traffic
Start speeding up when the front lane is straight
Merge at the half way of the acceleration lane
Flashing light
can you make video on red light rules while turning left and right on three way intersections
Eyes up, look for the gap, and drive into it. It really is just that easy. All you people waiting until the last second to figure out where the gap is are the problem.
Do you have a video on how to deal with road raged drivers and how to deescellate such bad encounters. It's a very serious problem with no decent answers.
Ignore
Ok but what happens if people on the highway don’t move to let you in
Best of luck looking for an answer for this . These instructors NEVER explain that part and when they do they act like we’re imaging that and it don’t exist.
As someone that's gotten on a highway at least 4x a day for 3 years trust me you're always let in if you know how to claim your gap only way you wouldn't is if you don't know how to get up to speed it's not like everyone's gonna ride bumper to bumper beside you no ones that stupid and if you think they are the look closer I bet there's space for a car between every car you're just scared to make the tight merge
@@karandeep.1234 this really helped man thank you
@@karandeep.1234 Yesterday, the car behind me in the next lane decided to speed up last minute to close the space and blocked me when I was about to merge. After he overtook me, he had to immediately slow down because there was traffic ahead. I had to slam on the brake and almost hit the concrete wall because my lane was ending. Apparently this is common practice in Montreal from what I heard. I learned how to drive in Ontario and I was shocked.
@@chofans that's fucked I'm in Ontario too 😂 guess Quebecs really is a shit hole
During my driving test I forgot to gave single to take left turn..
I'm more worried about all the people I see merging and are going 40 when the lane is straight then drive onto highway going 60. Going so slow they start backing traffic up
Many people make the mistake of ALWAYS slowing down to get behind someone. If there is more room in front of them, accelerate and get in FRONT of them. In my state, it’s up to the merger to find a spot to fit in. People are not required to move over for you. Ever. So if you don’t hit the gas and go for it sometimes, you missed your chance! My Mom taught me to drive at age 14 in thick, rush hour traffic. She made me merge and merge until I could do it in my sleep. She said “Never slow down when you’re merging (if you can help it). If you get a chance to speed up instead of slow down, do that instead. Because faster is what you need to end up going anyway, not slower. Also, parallel park every chance you get! Watch videos on how to do it well and practice a lot so when you have to do it, you won’t be scared to! She also taught me that in rush hour traffic. In her boat of a car! 😬
Uhm, I've been driving for over 50 years and every interstate I've driven on has these triangular signs that say YIELD on the entrance ramps. That doesn't mean you race someone that has the RIGHT OF WAY on the road!
@@michaelhill56 That’s not what I mean at all. The person on the freeway always has the right of way. What I’m saying is people can speed up if there is a space in front of people. If I am on the road, on the freeway, and there is a mile in front of me with no cars and someone is coming onto the freeway slightly in front of me, there is no reason that they need to apply the brakes and go behind me. They can step on the gasand get in front of me. As long as they don’t cut me off. But I will definitely hold my lane if there is lots of room in front of me and lots of room behind me. There is no reason in hell for me to get over lol.
It's just like that
Can vehicle behind pass u enter highway?
Rephrase that question
what if the lane you are merging is full of traffic ?many cars like rush hour, can u brake on acceleration lane?
By all means! Lane changing is always situation based. So, if the situation demands brake, you must. 🙂. Hope that answers your question. Cheers! 🙏🙏
And merging onto highway(changing lanes) when it’s heavy traffic is a lot easier cuz other drivers may give u a chance by stopping and letting u in
@@TorontoDrivers what if there is someone behind you
@@BabyYiOvO Not in Quebec... drivers get aggressive at people who try to "cut the line". The moment you signal, the drivers next to you will close all the space to make sure you don't lane change in front of them...
i passed my road test in a pickup truck first try, easy peasy march 11 2020 is when I passed, then a week later ALL the driving test centers closed down because of the virus
Lol! :) :) Congratulations for passing in the first attempt. :)
@@TorontoDrivers I did it in North Bay, I heard alot of Southern Ontario people is going up to North Bay and Northern Ontario to do their road tests right now
That's incredible that Canada will fail you for merging too slow. Probably 60% of US drivers merge dangerously slow. I've had to blast past someone on the shoulder before getting stuck behind them at 20mph with a semi coming up at 70
Video: imagine how smooth your merging would be if there were no cars in your lane
Utah drivers: NO
I really hope that never is a driving test in the U.S. We have experienced drivers who can't merge properly. The signal is pointless, its obvious you're merging or otherwise you'd just drive off the road. Expecting other cars to move over for you is another fantasy as well. I do it when i can on the interstate but many won't move an inch even it they can. They will make the merging car literally run off the road. As far as accelerating on the on ramp, do it as soon as you possibly can. Sometimes in the real world, you must exceed the speed limit in order to merge. You get a lot of dumb drivers passing other cars at merging ramps and they can't move over. You might have to go faster than the cars in the slow lane to enter.
I don’t wanna sound mean but why is merging so hard for people. It’s very easy
And dont expect people to move over for you.. i wont .. its not complicated
"slightly over the speed limit"
What kind of advice is that? its unconstitutional to ask such thing from a student.
Please send me in punjabi
You didn't explain how to merge when it's rush hour and the lanes of traffic aren't moving ...
that would be more help full bin
Can I use cruise control on my test?
No
