When you exit a freeway on a ramp that curves downhill, you should:
|
Wait until you have entered the curve to begin braking.
|
|
|
Slow to the posted speed limit for the freeway.
|
|
|
Slow down to a safe speed before entering the curve.
|
Explanation
To safely exit a freeway, maintain your speed until you are fully in the exit ramp, then slow down gradually to match the posted advisory speed. Exit ramp speeds are often lower because the ramps may curve sharply or slope downhill. It’s important to follow the posted speed limit, as taking a ramp too fast can make it difficult to stay in your lane or safely navigate the curve.
