Freeways and driving along them

MTO Driver’s Handbook: Safe and Responsible Driving, Freeway driving

A freeway, also called an expressway, is a high-speed, multi-lane road. Traffic going in each direction is separated and ramps let vehicles enter and exit. Vehicle speed is higher than on other roads, so driving can be more demanding and difficult; but because there are no intersections, bicycles or pedestrians, freeway driving can be safer for experienced drivers. New drivers need to learn to drive with other vehicles around them at low speeds before trying freeway driving, and Class G1 drivers may only drive on freeways with a licensed driving instructor.
