Question: When exiting a freeway, you should:
Answer options:
- Slow down in the through lane ✅ Move into the exit lane, then slow down
- Stop on the ramp
- Use hazards
Correct answer: Move into the exit lane, then slow down
Explanation: Safe freeway exiting requires maintaining highway speed until you fully enter the deceleration lane, and only then applying your brakes to slow down. Slowing down in the through lane is highly dangerous because it disrupts the flow of high-speed traffic and can cause rear-end collisions. Alternately, stopping on the ramp or using hazard lights are incorrect and unsafe actions during normal highway operation. Under the Ontario Ministry of Transportation guidelines, deceleration must occur entirely within the designated exit lane to maintain safety. Understanding this proper freeway exit procedure is a highly tested defensive driving concept on the G1 knowledge exam.
