When you exit a high-speed, two-lane roadway, _________ if you have traffic following you.

try not to slow down suddenly
accelerate rapidly
brake suddenly
turn without signaling

The correct answer is: try not to slow down suddenly

When you exit a high-speed, two-lane roadway, it is important to try not to slow down suddenly if you have traffic following you. Suddenly slowing down can lead to rear-end collisions as the vehicles behind you may not have enough time to react to your sudden decrease in speed. By maintaining a consistent speed or gradually reducing your speed while exiting, you can ensure a safer transition off the roadway for both yourself and the vehicles behind you. Accelerating rapidly, braking suddenly, or turning without signaling can all contribute to unsafe driving practices and increase the risk of accidents. It is crucial to signal your intention to exit, maintain a steady speed, and be aware of the vehicles around you to ensure a safe and smooth transition from the high-speed roadway.
