Chapter: Ch. 7 Expressway
Section: 第２節 走行上の注意
Type: Multiple choice
Difficulty: medium

## Question
Which precaution is correct when exiting from the main lane of an expressway?

## Options
A. If there is a deceleration lane, rely on your sense of speed to slow down
B. If there is a deceleration lane, check your speedometer while slowing down
C. Do not use the deceleration lane and slow down on the main lane
D. Do not slow down in the deceleration lane and proceed to the exit

## Correct answer
B. If there is a deceleration lane, check your speedometer while slowing down

## Explanation
Rules of the Road Chapter 7, Section 2, 5(2) clearly states, "In this case, if there is a deceleration lane, you must use that lane and reduce your speed while checking your speedometer rather than relying on your sense of speed." After high-speed driving, your sense of speed becomes dulled, so checking the speedometer is important.
