When you enter an expressway you should:

  1. Increase your speed slowly

  2. Start at the posted speed limit

  3. Merge into the left lane immediately

  4. Come to a complete stop first

The correct answer is: Increase your speed slowly

As you enter an expressway, it is best to increase your speed gradually. This allows you to merge smoothly with the flow of traffic and avoids causing any disruptions or accidents. Option B, starting at the posted speed limit, can be dangerous as other cars may be travelling at higher speeds. Option C, merging into the left lane immediately, is not recommended as the left lane is for passing and may result in slower cars impeding traffic. Option D, coming to a complete stop first, is incorrect as vehicles on expressways are not meant to stop unless necessary. Overall, increasing speed slowly is the safest and most efficient way to enter an expressway.
