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

the other drivers are

driving. Too-fast or too-slow driving breaks

smooth traffic flow. Treat the

left lane on a freeway as a passing lane.

At the entrance there

usually a ramp that leads to the freeway.

you have

a clear view

the freeway as you drive along

the

entrance ramp, you

should begin to check traffic. Try

determine where

you

expect

blend

with

the flow. Try to merge into the gap at close to the prevailing speed.

Switch on 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

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

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.

Once you are moving

the freeway, make certain you allow

reasonable

following distance. Expect to move slightly slower at night.

When you want to leave the freeway, move to the proper lane well in

advance. If you

miss

your exit do not, under any circumstances, stop and

back up. Drive on to the next exit.

The exit ramp can be curved, sometimes quite sharply.

The exit speed is usually posted.

Reduce your speed according to your speedometer, not to your sense of

motion. After driving

for

any distance at higher speeds, you may tend to

think you are going slower than you actually are.
