For answer  A 

Although the use of the acceleration lane requires increasing the speed in order to merge safely onto the motorway, the drivers of motor vehicles do not have priority. Answer A is wrong, because it does not mention the obligation to give way to the motor vehicles that already move on the first lane of the motorway and to not hinder their movement.

For answer  B 

Defensive driving is a recommended practice in any situation, but it is not specific to the regulations regarding entering the motorway using the acceleration lane. Therefore, answer B is wrong, because it does not reflect a specific obligation for entering the motorway.

For answer  C 

It is well known that the motor vehicles that move on the motorway travel at a higher speed than those on other categories of roads. In order to allow the vehicles that enter the motorway to reach a speed compatible with that of the traffic and to merge safely, an additional lane called “acceleration lane” was created. The traffic regulation imposes certain obligations for the users of this lane. Thus, when the driver of a motor vehicle wishes to enter the motorway using the acceleration lane, the driver must increase the travelling speed, give way to the vehicles that move on the first lane of the motorway and to not hinder in any way their movement.

The correct answer is: C
