When choosing the ramp to enter the expressway, which clue is helpful?

• A. Do not enter the wrong way signs at the ramp
• B. The ramp with the most traffic is safest
• C. The first ramp you see is always best
• D. The ramp with the shortest distance is best

Answer: (A)

Relying on road signs that guide you to enter the expressway in the correct direction is essential. A ramp that has a warning to avoid entering or a “Do not enter” sign tells you that using that ramp would send you the wrong way, which is extremely dangerous and illegal. This clue directly indicates whether a ramp is appropriate for your intended direction, helping you avoid a head-on collision with traffic coming from the opposite direction. Rushing to use a ramp just because it seems shorter or busier isn’t a reliable safety signal, and choosing the first ramp you see or the one with the shortest distance can lead you into hazardous situations. Always select the ramp that is clearly signed for entering in your direction and follow the posted signs and lane markings.
