When using a deceleration lane to exit a roadway, drivers should:
|
Not use their turn signal until their vehicle has moved onto the deceleration lane.
|
|
|
Disregard the posted advisory speed unless the road is slippery.
|
|
|
Not slow down until their vehicle has moved onto the deceleration lane.
|
|
|
Speed up.
|
Explanation
Drivers should start slowing down as soon as they enter the deceleration lane, and continue to slow down to the posted advisory speed for the ramp. This ensures a smooth and safe transition off the roadway, as abruptly slowing down after entering the deceleration lane can cause accidents or disrupt traffic flow. It is also important to move to the appropriate lane well before reaching the exit to avoid sudden lane changes and potential collisions.
