What should you do if you miss your intended exit on a highway?

Make a U-turn on the highway to go back to the missed exit.
Continue to the next exit and find an alternative route.
Stop in the emergency lane and wait for assistance.
Back up on the highway to the missed exit.

The correct answer is: Continue to the next exit and find an alternative route.

If you miss your intended exit on a highway, you should continue to the next exit and find an alternative route. Making a U-turn on the highway or backing up are dangerous and illegal maneuvers that can put yourself and others at risk. Stopping in the emergency lane can also be hazardous, especially on busy highways where vehicles are traveling at high speeds. It is safest to stay in your lane and continue until you can safely exit and find another route.
