When entering a highway from a private road, what should you do before proceeding?

  1. Look right and left

  2. Stop and look both ways

  3. Check the speed limit

  4. Flash your lights

The correct answer is: Stop and look both ways

Before entering a highway from a private road, it is important to come to a complete stop and look both ways before proceeding. This allows you to ensure that there are no fast-moving vehicles approaching and that it is safe to merge onto the highway. Looking right and left, as option A suggests, may not be sufficient as it does not account for vehicles coming from both directions. Checking the speed limit, as option C suggests, is important but not necessary before merging onto a highway. Flashing your lights, as option D suggests, is not a recommended action as it can distract other drivers and potentially cause accidents. Thus, the correct answer is to come to a complete stop and look both ways before proceeding onto a highway from a private road.
