Freeway Driving

Mile for mile, freeways (also called thruways, parkways,

expressways, turnpikes, or superhighways) are the safest

of all roads. But they have their own special rules.

The most important advice on freeway driving is: Keep

up with traffic and keep to the right. Drive at the same

speed most of the other drivers are driving. Too-fast or

too-slow driving breaks a smooth traffic flow. Treat the

left lane on a freeway as a passing lane.

At the entrance there is usually a ramp that leads to the

freeway. If you have

clear view of the freeway as you

drive along the entrance ramp, you should begin to

check traffic. Try to determine where you expect to

blend with the flow. Try to merge into the gap at close to

the prevailing speed. Switch

your turn signal, check

your mirrors and glance over your shoulder as often as

necessary. Try to blend smoothly with the traffic flow.

Once you are on the freeway, adjust your speed to the

posted limit or to the prevailing rate if it’s slower. Stay

in the right lane unless you want to pass.

Before changing lanes, check your mirrors. Then use

your

turn

signal.

Just before you leave the lane, glance quickly over your

shoulder to make sure there isn’t another vehicle in your

“blind” spot.
