An entrance ramp allows vehicles to join the expressway from a local road, while an exit ramp leads vehicles off the expressway onto a local road. Entrance ramps typically have yield or merge signs, while exit ramps have signs indicating the upcoming exit number or destination.
An on-ramp is a road or lane that allows vehicles to enter an expressway or highway. It typically has a merging lane that vehicles use to reach the desired speed before merging into the flow of traffic.

An entrance ramp allows vehicles to enter the highway from a local road, while an exit ramp allows vehicles to exit the highway and enter a local road. Entrance ramps typically merge with the highway's traffic flow, while exit ramps separate vehicles from the main highway lanes.

Entering and Leaving Expressways Vehicles can enter and leave expressways only at certain points. Because expressway traffic is usually moving at or close to the maximum speed allowed, you need to know how to enter and exit safely. All expressway entrances have three basic parts: an entrance ramp, an acceleration lane, and a merging area. Follow these guidelines to enter an expressway safely: � On the entrance ramp, begin checking for an opening in traffic. Signal for your turn. � As the ramp straightens into the acceleration lane, speed up. Try to adjust your speed so that you can move into the traffic when you reach the end of the acceleration lane. � Merge into traffic when you can do so safely. You must yield the right-of-way to traffic on the expressway. You cannot always count on other drivers moving over to give you room to enter, but do not stop on an acceleration lane unless traffic is too heavy and there is no space for you to enter safely.
Be sure to reduce your speed gradually, signaling your intent to exit. Check your surroundings for other vehicles and safely merge into the exit ramp or de-acceleration lane at a slower speed than the main roadway. Maintain a safe following distance from other vehicles as you prepare to exit or merge.
