Question:
Offramps/onramps:
Freeway and turnpike exits can be particularly dangerous for commercial vehicles. Offramps
and onramps often have speed limit signs posted. Remember, these speeds may be safe for automobiles but may
not be safe for larger vehicles or heavily loaded vehicles. Exits that go downhill and turn at the same time can be
especially dangerous. The downgrade makes it difficult to reduce speed. Braking and turning at the same time can
be a dangerous practice. Make sure you are going slow enough before you get on the curved part of an offramp or
onramp.
