Freeway Driving 0 0 Try to use the freeways that rim and crisscross most large cities. You'll save time and energy. (See the next section, "Freeway Driving.") Treat a green light as a warning signal. A traffic light is there because the corner is busy enough to need if. just When a light turns green, and before you start to move, check both ways for vehicles that have not be cleared the intersection or may running the red light. Obey all posted speed limits. But remember that they arefor ideal road, weather and visibility conditions. You may need to drive below the posted limit in bad weather or when visibility is especiallypoor. Pull to the right (with care) and stop clear of intersectionswhen you see or hear emergency vehicles. Mile for mile, freeways (also called thruways, parkways, expressways, turnpikes, or superhighways)are the safest of all roads. But they haveltheir own special rules. The most impartant advice freeway on driving is: Keep up with traffic &ndkeep to the right. Drive at same speed most the of the other drivers are driving. Too-fast or too-slow driving breaks asmooth traffic flow. Treat left lane on a the freeway as a passing lane. t

Try
to
use
the
freeways
that
rim
and
crisscross
most
large
cities.
You’ll
save
time
and
energy.
(See
the
next
section,
“Freeway
Driving.”)
Treat a green
light as a warning
signal.
A
traffic
light
is
there
because
the
corner
is
busy
enough
to
need
if.
When a
light
turns
green,
and
just
before
you
start
to
move,
check
both
ways
for
vehicles
that
have
not
cleared
the
intersection
or
may
be
running
the
red
light.
Obey
all
posted
speed
limits.
But
remember
that
they
are
for
ideal
road,
weather
and
visibility
conditions.
You
may
need
to
drive
below
the
posted
limit
in
bad
weather or
when
visibility
is
especially poor.
Pull
to
the
right
(with
care)
and stop
clear
of
intersections
when
you see
or
hear
emergency
vehicles.
Freeway
Driving
Mile
for
mile,
freeways
(also
called
thruways,
parkways,
expressways,
turnpikes,
or
superhighways) are
the
safest of all roads.
But
they
haveltheir
own
special
rules.
The
most
impartant
advice
on
freeway
driving
is:
Keep
up
with
traffic
&nd
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.
