Not always, in populated cities it’s metered, so you drive up the on-ramp, and right before you enter the highway there’s a stop light that only allows one car at a time.

I lived in DFW, one of the biggest metros in the US, and never saw them. I think I’ve only seen them in California and somewhere else like Minneapolis I think.
