Can someone here describe in full detail how to drive on the freeway? I need a step by step synopsis of entering, driving on, and exiting off the freeway.

easy, use the on ramp to build up to the correct posted speed limit on the freeway. Use your turn signal and realize that trafic entering the freeway is the one that must yield to traffic already there. Don't enter at a slower speed than is posted, this causes some real problems! once on the freeway, turn off your signal and drive with the flow of traffic. It is a good idea to move one lane to the left so that other cars entering the freeway have a chance to merge as well. Once you are close to where you need to exit, signal right, wait till you have a safe opening and change to the right lane. Shut off your turn signal. Then when your exit is near, signal right and exit. Remember that on the freeway the far left lane ( in america) is for faster moving traffic or people driving a longer distance.

to get on the freeway you should merge and be up to speed when you merge on..it takes a little pre-planning to make sure you are up to speed when you get on...when on the freeway don't change a lot of lanes this is one of the most common freeway accidents...also if you are getting off the freeway be prepared the green signs tell you well in advance that your exit is coming up also pay close attention to the yellow signs under the exit it will let you know if its a left or right exit...the last thing i would ad is if you can't make your exit go to the next one and turn around it will only cost you a few minutes ...a lot less time than if you cause an accident...good luck

The on ramp is for getting up to speed. Use your turn signals and mirrors. Merg left and be careful .
The far left lane is called the hammer lane. Its the fastest lane even though all the lanes have the same speed limit. Signal when you are getting off the freeway. use the slow down lane if the off ramp has one. Other wise slow down a little bit before hand. And get off.

synopsis ?? my brain wont function at that level right now..
only I have some advice, is things good to do:
*Getting on the freeway match your speed to the traffic or slightly faster, This allows for you to "fit in" so no one will need to slow down.
*One goal of mine is to not cause anyone to slow down, even if I'm going 80 in a 65 mph area, I will move over for a faster car.
