Explanation
Exiting an expressway on a downhill, curved ramp can be challenging and requires extra caution. Many exit ramps are designed with sharp curves, so it’s important to slow down to the posted advisory speed. Obeying the exit ramp speed limit helps ensure you maintain control of your vehicle and can safely navigate the curve. Reducing your speed also gives you more time to react to potential hazards, such as a stalled vehicle or an unexpected obstruction.
