Not all onramps and highways are long drawn out ramps with shoulders where you can just putz off to the side. Plenty of the ones around here are short and shoot you right onto the highway with a tight guardrail on the right and really no shoulder, not to mention a lot of onramps are also part of an offramp as well. Losing power could be downright deadly in one of those situations.
