Explanation
When exiting an expressway, use the deceleration lane to reduce your speed and watch for posted speed limit signs on the exit ramp. Slow down on the ramp so that by the time you leave the expressway, you’re already driving at the appropriate speed. Be alert for two-way traffic or more complex driving conditions after your exit - such as intersections, pedestrians, or slower vehicles. Adjust your driving to match these new conditions and remain cautious as you transition off the expressway.
