Should You Change Multiple Lanes at Once on the Highway?

Ever been on a busy highway and needed to move over two lanes? I’ve been there, stuck in the far right lane, eyeing my exit way over on the left. It’s tempting to just zip across all at once, but I always take it one lane at a time, signaling each move. I’ve seen drivers cut across multiple lanes in one swoop, and honestly, it makes me nervous because it’s hard to predict where they’re going. For everyone’s safety, I stick to the rule: one lane, one signal, one move. What’s your take on this? Share your thoughts below! #DrivingTips #HighwaySafety #RealLifeDriving #Cars
