Once you are moving on the freeway, make certain you allow a
reasonable following distance. Expect to move slightly slower at night.
When you want to leave the freeway, move to the proper lane well in
advance. If you miss your exit do not, under any circumstances, stop and
back up. Drive on to the next exit.
The exit ramp can be curved, sometimes quite sharply.
The exit speed is usually posted.
Reduce your speed according to your speedometer, not to your sense of
motion. After driving for any distance at higher speeds, you may tend to
think you are going slower than you actually are.
BEFORE LEAVTNG O N A LONG T H P
Make sure you're ready. Try to be well rested. If you must start when
you're not fresh -- such as after a day's work -- don't plan to make too
many miles that first part of the journey. Wear comfortable clothing and
shoes you can easily drive in.
Is your vehicle ready for a long trip? If you keep it serviced and
maintained, it's ready to go. If it needs service, have it done before
starting out. Of course, you'll find experienced and able service experts in
Cadillac dealerships all across North America. They'll be ready and
willing to help if you need it.
Here are some things you can check before a trip:
