Why it matters: Merging and exiting: 2/3 of the lane and the 300-metre rule
Merging too early near Clinge on the A37 means joining at a speed still too low for the through lane — through traffic then has to brake or swerve unexpectedly. And whoever only signals halfway along the exit lane near Graauw gives following traffic too little time to anticipate; the 300-metre rule exists precisely to guarantee that reaction time.
