Freeways & High-Speed RoadsStandalone practice
You drive in the left lane of a busy freeway. You suddenly see that your exit ramp starts a few hundred feet ahead on the right, across two lanes of traffic. What should you do?
A is in the far-left lane with two busy lanes between it and the right-side exit beyond this view.
Correct answer: Keep going, miss this exit, and turn around by way of the next exit
Why
A last-second move toward an exit forces other drivers to brake or swerve. Watch the signs and move into the correct lane early. If you still miss your exit, drive on to the next one, leave the freeway there, and plan a route back.
