You are driving at the recommended speed on the motorway and want to leave it at the next exit. What should you do?

You answered correctly. When preparing to exit the motorway in Germany, you should stop any overtaking well before reaching the exit, as last-minute lane changes can be dangerous. You also need to significantly reduce your speed only once you are on the exit lane, not while still on the right-hand lane of the motorway. Braking too early can surprise drivers behind you and cause accidents. This ensures a smooth and safe transition off the motorway and is in line with German motorway regulations. Remember, always brake and slow down primarily on the deceleration (exit) lane, not on the main travel lane.
