You realize you have missed your highway exit. What is the correct action?
Show Answer & Explanation
Correct Answer: C. Continue to the next exit and turn around there
Reversing on a freeway or shoulder is illegal and extremely dangerous — following drivers cannot react in time. The safe and legal response to a missed exit is always to continue to the next one and come back if needed.
Why the other answers are wrong
- A.Reverse on the shoulder to reach the exitReversing on a freeway shoulder is illegal and the cause of many high-speed collisions.
- B.Stop on the shoulder and wait for traffic to clearStopping on the shoulder for a missed exit is not a safe reason to stop; shoulders are for emergencies.
- D.Make a U-turn across the medianU-turning across a freeway median is illegal — medians are not designed for crossing and the manoeuvre exposes you to traffic in both directions.
