What are the deceleration markings on the highway?
1 Answers
Deceleration markings on the highway can be divided into horizontal deceleration markings and longitudinal deceleration markings. Introduction to deceleration markings on the highway: These are white dashed lines set up in toll plaza areas, exit ramps, or other sections where vehicle deceleration is required. They come in forms such as single dashed lines, double dashed lines, and triple dashed lines, perpendicular to the direction of travel. Horizontal deceleration markings consist of a set of parallel white dashed lines, while longitudinal deceleration markings consist of a set of diamond-shaped dashed lines parallel to the lane dividing lines. When encountering deceleration markings, it is essential to slow down to avoid rear-end collisions, especially in sections with longitudinal deceleration markings, where drivers may visually perceive the lane as gradually narrowing. Additional information on deceleration markings on the highway: The driving speed on the highway should not be lower than 80 km/h or exceed 120 km/h. Due to the high speeds, traffic accidents are more likely to occur. Pay attention to speed limit signs and drive within the prescribed speed range. Do not exceed the maximum speed limit and ensure you are driving in the appropriate lane. Additionally, speed limits on highways are segmented, requiring drivers to be particularly attentive to speed limit signs.
