Explanation
When exiting an expressway, always make your intentions clear to other drivers by using your turn signals. Merge into the lane closest to the exit ramp without cutting off other vehicles. Slow down gradually and adjust to the speed limit posted on the ramp. Even if no speed limit sign is visible, don't maintain the same high speed you were driving on the expressway, as the road you are exiting onto will likely have a lower speed limit.
