While driving in lane 1 of a three-lane (each direction) expressway, you realize too late that your exit is just ahead. What is the most appropriate action?
💡 Hint
The rule is to watch the guide signs and move to the outer lane in good time before an exit, and you must not obstruct other vehicles when changing lanes (Article 19(3) of the Road Traffic Act). Also recall that stopping and reversing are prohibited on expressways, etc. (Articles 62 and 64).
Answer: ④
Explanation
The proper way to exit is to watch for guide signs, move to the outer lane early and slow down in the deceleration lane. Cutting across several lanes at the last moment obstructs other traffic and easily causes crashes (Road Traffic Act Article 19(3)), and stopping on the shoulder or reversing is prohibited (Articles 62 and 64). It is safer to take the next exit and come back.
