Explanation
When you plan to exit the highway, prepare early by moving into the correct lane well before your exit. Use your turn signal to let other drivers know your intentions, and reduce your speed gradually once you're in the exit lane-do not brake suddenly. At the end of the exit ramp, be prepared to yield or stop if necessary before merging onto the intersecting roadway. Exiting smoothly and predictably helps reduce the risk of collisions and keeps traffic flowing safely.
