California's DMV handbook for motorcycles advises caution regarding lane splitting: "Vehicles and motorcycles each need a full lane to operate safely and riding between rows of stopped or moving vehicles in the same lane can leave you vulnerable. A vehicle could turn suddenly or change lanes, a door could open, or a hand could come out the window."
At the existing intersection, Mitchell Mill traffic will still be able to turn right or left at U.S. 401, while drivers going north on U.S. 401 will be able to turn right on to Mitchell Mill.
Generally speaking, at a slip road onto a controlled-access highway or otherwise, traffic on the highway has priority over traffic joining at the slip road, and therefore the slip road traffic should accelerate to the speed on the major road and merge into a gap in the stream of traffic in lane one.
The lane-by-lane capacity and performance analysis method used by Sidra Intersection includes identifying any de facto exclusive lanes, unequal lane utilisation, lane change, modelling of short lanes (turn bays, lanes with parking upstream, and loss of a lane at the exit side) including delays and stops experienced by drivers in the queue upstream of short lane entry, and lane blockage in ...
In a lane diet, the width of a car lane is decreased to reduce vehicle speeds and accidents [3] and provide space for other use. [4] Typically vehicular travel lane widths are narrowed to no more than 2.8 metres (9.1 ft), [5] and left turn (in countries where cars travel on the right-hand side of the road) storage lanes between 2.7 and 3.0 metres (9 and 10 ft).

Acceleration lane onto U.S. 278 is being removed in Bluffton.
Channelization of at-grade intersections is the separation or regulation of conflicting traffic movements into definite paths of travel by the use of pavement markings, raised islands, or other suitable means to facilitate the safe and orderly movement of both vehicles and pedestrians.
An intersection or an at-grade junction is a junction where two or more roads converge, diverge, meet or cross at the same height, as opposed to an interchange, which uses bridges or tunnels to separate different roads. Major intersections are often delineated by gores and may be classified by road segments, traffic controls and lane design.
