What lights should be turned on when a motor vehicle exits the highway?

When a motor vehicle exits the highway, the right turn signal should be turned on. A motor vehicle refers to a vehicle equipped with mechanical power drive. It is also a wheeled vehicle used for transporting people or goods, or for performing specialized engineering operations on the road. Generally, a motor vehicle refers to a vehicle that has its own power device and can operate independently on highways and urban roads to complete transportation tasks. The following precautions should be taken when a motor vehicle exits the highway: 1. Reduce speed and turn on the right turn signal before exiting the highway to inform other vehicles that the vehicle is slowing down to exit. 2. The exit ramp is on the right side of the highway, so the motor vehicle must exit the highway and enter the ramp from the right side.
Highway drivers all know this: you must use the right turn signal when exiting a ramp! Three key points: First, signal 500 meters in advance to give trailing vehicles enough reaction time. Second, keep the signal on until fully entering the ramp. Third, when encountering diverging exit lanes, choose your lane early and signal in advance. Last time I was driving at night, I saw someone suddenly change lanes without signaling—almost caused a rear-end collision. In rain or fog, signal even earlier since light penetration is better in low visibility. If your turn signal has poor contact, get it fixed immediately—it's a lifesaver when exiting the highway. Also, remember to clean the lens cover during car washes; foggy covers can reduce brightness.
