My Solution

It appears that from my interviews and research like many things there are pros and cons. The most common issue was that making any changes would add to the driving time and cause some traffic because of the traffic lights. Now with the idea of adding traffic lights on ramps it would ultimately help ease of merging on highways  and that is proven with the success in California. Other ideas that I heard from my interviews was the idea of placing the highway's speed limit on the ramp that way the driver would have an idea on how fast they need to be at least. With the combination of these two ideas I feel that it would help reduce traffic accidents near ramps and improve the experience of merging into highway traffic.
