You are travelling on the highway and intend to exit it. At what point do you start braking before the exit from the highway?
Description
Art. 3 para. 1 of the Act of 20 June 1997 - The Road Traffic Act (Journal of Laws of 2012, item 1137, as amended) in conjunction with § 86 para. 2 of the Regulation of the Ministers of Infrastructure and of Internal Affairs and Administration of 31 July 2002 on road signs and signals (Journal of Laws No. 170, item 1393, as amended)
Explanation
Correct answer: After entering the start of the exit lane (exit).
You should only start braking after entering the deceleration lane (exit lane). Slowing down on the main carriageways of a motorway is very dangerous, as it creates the risk of a rear-end collision from vehicles travelling at high speed. Deceleration lanes are specifically designed for safely reducing speed.
