27 Drive with adequate ventilation and take the opportunity of stretching your legs at the parking or service areas so as to avoid the drowsiness which may attack you after long spells of driving at an even speed.
Driving at Night
28 Do not drive on a motorway after dark on your side lights only.
29 Always keep to a speed that will enable you to stop well within the range of your headlights.
30 Dip your headlights when following behind another vehicle in your lane.
31 Where the central reservation has no adequate screen of trees or shrubs to prevent dazzle, dip your headlights when meeting vehicles from the opposite direction.
Leaving the Motorway
32 If you are not travelling to the end of the motorway, watch for the signs warning you of your point of exit; the first sign will be one mile in advance of the slip road to your left, the second half a mile in advance and a third at the exit.
33 To leave a motorway at one of the intermediate exit points, get into the left-hand lane in good time, stay in it, and give a left-turn signal well before you reach the slip road.
34 Reduce speed as necessary in the deceleration lane on the approach to the slip road and not on the motorway itself.
35 To reach a destination to the right of the motorway, you will leave by a slip road on your left. Watch for signs near a junction off the motorway, directing you to the right of the motorway via an underpass or bridge.
36 If you miss your exit continue along the carriageway until the next exit.
37 When you leave the motorway, remember to adapt your driving to the different conditions of the ordinary road system.
