Freeway Driving
- 1/10When you enter the acceleration lane on the freeway
The purpose of the acceleration lane is to allow you to build up speed to match the flow of traffic on the freeway, making merging smoother and safer.
If you are in the far left lane of a multi-lane freeway
The far left lane is typically used for overtaking slower vehicles. It is not intended for regular driving, so you should return to a right lane once you have passed.
If a slower-moving vehicle cuts in front of a faster vehicle
It is both dangerous and illegal for a slower-moving vehicle to cut in front of a faster-moving vehicle, as it can cause abrupt braking and collisions.
When using a deceleration lane to exit the freeway
The deceleration lane is designed for reducing your speed safely before leaving the freeway, helping you exit smoothly without disrupting traffic.
If you miss your freeway exit
It is safer and legal to continue to the next available exit rather than stopping, reversing, or making unsafe maneuvers.
To use the HOV lane on provincial highways
HOV (High-Occupancy Vehicle) lanes encourage carpooling and are designated for vehicles with a minimum of two people, unless otherwise indicated.
Vehicles exempt from HOV lane restrictions
Public transit and emergency vehicles can use the HOV lanes at all times to improve efficiency and emergency response.
If you are caught in an HOV lane improperly
If you are not qualified to use the HOV lane, you should safely return to regular traffic as soon as it is legally and safely possible.
Vehicles that can use the HOV lane with any number of occupants
In some regions, electric or eco-friendly vehicles with special plates are allowed in HOV lanes regardless of the number of occupants.
A safe driving practice on the freeway
The right lane is for regular travel. The left lane should be used primarily for overtaking, then returning to the right to maintain smooth traffic flow.
