Expressway Safety RemindersPlan your trip. Know just where you will get on and get off.Drive in the right lane and pass on the left. If there are three lanes, use the right lane for lower speed driving, the left for passing. If you stay in the right lane, watch for cars entering the expressway. Adjust your speed or move into the center lane so they can enter safely.Never stop on the pavement, shoulder, or connecting ramp of an expressway except in an emergency. If your vehicle breaks down, it may be parked on the side of the expressway (completely off the pavement) for no more than six hours. Raise your hood and tie a white cloth to your antenna or left door handle to show you need help.Never back up on an expressway entrance ramp or exit ramp. The only exception to this would be if you are trying to enter an expressway through an exit. In this case, you would see a "WRONG WAY" or "DO NOT ENTER" sign. Then you must back up or turn around.Do not cross, drive on or park on the median strip.Do not follow too closely. Rear end collisions are the greatest danger on expressways. Always leave room for emergency stops.Stop driving when you feel tired. On long trips the hum of the engine and your lack of movement can make you feel sleepy. Stop for a cup of coffee, a short walk, or a nap. Do not risk falling asleep at the wheel.

When merging onto the expressway should you stop on the entrance ramp?
No. Not unless there is a "Meter" with a traffic signal.* Stopping on the entrance ramp - unless traffic is so congested that forward movement is impossible - is dangerous. Instead, you should be using the entrance ramp to get up to the prevailing speed of the traffic and merge smoothly into the traffic. *There are a few places where traffic lights have been installed at the top of entrance ramps. In those cases you should obey the law and stop for red lights. But these kind of arrangements are not used in most states - only where the traffic is typically too heavy for the ordinary merging practice.
What problems could make entering an expressway difficult?
Traffic congestion, an insufficient acceleration ramp prior to merging onto the expressway, weather conditions, blockage of the roadway.
