What should you prepare for when you see a lane end sign?

• A. To exit the roadway
• B. To turn around
• C. To merge
• D. To stop immediately

Answer: (C)

Seeing a lane end sign means the lane you’re in will end ahead and traffic must merge into the adjacent lane that continues. You should prepare to merge by signaling early, checking mirrors and blind spots, finding a safe gap in the other lane, and adjusting your speed to fit the flow while yielding to vehicles already in that lane. If you’re in the continuing lane, stay alert for vehicles merging and adjust your speed to maintain a safe gap. It’s not about exiting the roadway, turning around, or stopping immediately—the sign directs you to merge with the traffic in the next lane.
