Explanation
If you wish to exit a highway, you must not start slowing down before you get onto the exit ramp. Doing this could block the flow of traffic or cause a rear-end collision. Slow down and look for speed limit signs only once you are on the exit ramp. Always remember to use your turn signal well in advance, so the drivers behind you are warned.
