On-ramp Bottleneck
When traffic is merging from an on-ramp onto a highway, a bottleneck can occur. This video shows cars merging onto the highway in slow moving traffic. Because there is no space between cars on the highway, the cars on the on-ramp have to come to a stop and wait to merge. This leads to a line of stopped cars on the on ramp. Bottlenecks occur when there is insufficient space for the cars on the road.
