Practice question

What should you do if you miss your exit on the highway?

  1. Back up to reach it
  2. Continue to the next exit
  3. Make a U-turn immediately
  4. Stop and wait for assistance

Answer: B — Continue to the next exit

When you miss your exit on the highway, the safest and most appropriate action to take is to continue to the next exit. This option allows for a safe and legal way to get back on track. Highways are designed for high-speed travel, and attempting to back up, make a U-turn, or stopping can create dangerous situations not only for you but also for other drivers. Continuing to the next exit gives you the opportunity to safely change direction without disrupting traffic flow. Once you reach the next exit, you can find a safe place to turn around or get back on the highway in the desired direction. This approach ensures adherence to traffic laws and promotes the safety of all road users.
