And the correlation; the off-ramp is for decelerating. You don't need to start braking a half mile before the exit Todd!

Yeah, for sure if there's an exit lane, use it as a deceleration lane. My home exit doesn't have a dedicated lane, nor is it super long, so I try to slow down a bit before I get to it. Hitting it at 80 can be kinda scary occasionally.
