Freeway Driving - Chevrolet Corvette Owner's Manual

Here are ways to increase your safety in city
driving:
•
Know the best way to get to where you are
going. Get a city map and plan your trip
into an unknown part of the city just as you
would for a cross-country trip.
•
Try to use the freeways that rim and crisscross
most large cities. You will save time and
energy. See Freeway Driving on page 296.
•
Treat a green light as a warning signal. A
traffic light is there because the corner is
busy enough to need it. When a light turns
green, and just before you start to move,
check both ways for vehicles that have not
cleared the intersection or may be running the
red light.

Freeway Driving

Mile for mile, freeways — also called thruways,
parkways, expressways, turnpikes, or
superhighways — are the safest of all roads.
But they have their own special rules.
