Explanation
An expressway is a divided highway with multiple lanes of traffic moving in the same direction. It is designed for high-speed travel and to allow the smooth, uninterrupted flow of vehicles. Expressways are controlled-access highways, meaning there are no traffic signals or intersections. Drivers enter and exit only at designated points using ramps. Before driving on an expressway, identify your entrance and exit points on a map. Know where to get on and off, and be prepared to move into the correct lanes in advance.
