How to Drive In high speed traffic Or in any city with (HST)Everybody drives the freeways from home to work every day. Freeway speeds are70 MPH plus and this type of driving is where you and your vehicle must become one. The driver’s dive in a semi state of road rage at all times unless there’s a traffic jam and then tempers become engage. In Southern California most of the driver’s drive by timing, this is a skill that keeps you alive in high-speed traffic (HST). Timed driving evolves seeing the Big Picture and slowing without using your brakes or leaving too large of a space in front of you. That makes you one of the best drivers of high speed driving in the world unless you’re the only one driving fast. If you do not know how to enter the fast freeways of California don’t try. In every State you should enter the freeway at the flow of traffic, never stop on the on ramp unless you have a signal operating, which I think they are useless unless you have a long enough ramp to enter the freeway at the flow of traffic. Each driver knows how long it takes to get to work and if you pay attention you will see the same driver every workday in the same place on the freeway. The locals know where they are going and expect delays. People will not slow down for you on a HST freeway anywhere. To enter a HST freeway you must make sure you’re ahead of the vehicle your going in on while your still on the ramp letting them know your exact intent. Meaning if they are traveling at 85 miles per hour you must be at 85 MPH and ahead of them when the two lanes meet. If your car license plate is out of state good luck. Your out-of-State license plate means; you do not have the experience, you really do not need to be on the freeway at this time, and you do not know how to drive in this environment, and will cause traffic problems. People who drive in HST watch for brake lights and identify the vehicle plates six cars behind you in two lanes, and six drivers may flip you off six times. In order for you to drive in HST you must be watching at least six cars behind you plus six cars in front of you, called the Big Picture. In order to switch lanes make sure there are no other car in the same position for that space in another lane. Switch lanes by matching speed always. The only vehicle that will let you change lanes on a HST freeway by using your turn indicators or turning your head will probably be a State Officer, and the cruiser may be there for you anyway.The best way to test your environment, have a professional or local drive you around first.
